The Super Falcons are through to the WAFCON 2026 quarterfinals! Asisat Oshoala opened the scoring in the 21st minute, calmly converting a penalty after a VAR review confirmed a handball inside the Egyptian box. Substitute Uchenna Kanu restored the two-goal cushion in the 57th minute after a fine assist from Rinsola Babajide, who was outstanding throughout. Nigeria finished second in Group C on six points, behind Malawi who topped the group on goal difference, with the quarterfinal against Cameroon in Rabat now the next challenge.
