Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) reality show host, Ebuka Obi Uchendu, has directed the spotlight towards Super Falcons defender, Ashleigh Plumptre, with high praise for her exceptional performance on the field at the ongoing 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
Ebuka Obi Uchendu took to his Twitter handle to express his admiration for Plumptre’s display during Nigeria’s intense Round of 16 clash against England. The BBNaija host stated, “Take a bow Ashleigh Plumptre [100%],” acknowledging the defender’s remarkable efforts.
Throughout the match, Plumptre’s prowess was evident, as she showcased her defensive skills, causing a moment of near-triumph when her shot hit the crossbar. Her tenacity and commitment to the team’s cause did not go unnoticed by the BBNaija host and football enthusiasts alike.
Despite the match ending in a goalless draw after 120 minutes of intense gameplay, the Super Falcons demonstrated determination and resilience. However, England secured victory in the penalty shootout, with Nigeria narrowly missing out on a spot in the quarter-finals as Desire Oparanozie and Michelle Alozie were unfortunate with their spot-kicks.
