Nigeria’s Super Falcons booked their place in the quarterfinals of the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations with a commanding 6-2 victory over Egypt in their final Group C match on Wednesday.
The Falcons took control from the outset and never looked back, producing a clinical attacking display to record one of the biggest wins of the tournament.
Asisat Oshoala opened the scoring from the penalty spot before Gift Monday doubled Nigeria’s lead with a well-taken finish.
Egypt responded through Ghazi, who grabbed a brace, including a penalty, but Nigeria always had the answers.
The emphatic win sees the Super Falcons advance to the last eight with momentum firmly on their side as they continue their chase for a record-extending 10th WAFCON title.
