Nigeria’s Super Falcons suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Cameroon after Nyadjou’s 19th-minute goal proved decisive in their WAFCON 2026 encounter. The Super Falcons created several opportunities but were unable to find a way past Bihina, who stood firm throughout the contest to preserve Cameroon’s lead. The defeat means Nigeria will not automatically qualify for the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Brazil through the WAFCON route. Therefore, while the Super Falcons’ World Cup hopes remain alive, they now face a more difficult route to Brazil. The 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup is scheduled to take place in Brazil.
