The Super Falcons of Nigeria on Tuesday booked their place in the final of the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) in Morocco after a dramatic 2-1 win over South Africa, sealed by a late goal from defender Michelle Alozie.

With the match seemingly heading for extra time, Alozie launched a long ball into the South African box, which evaded everyone, including the goalkeeper and nestled into the net, stunning the Banyana Banyana defence.

The goal secured Nigeria’s spot in the final and marked a thrilling end to a closely contested semifinal clash.

What was billed as a clash of the titans between the defending champions and nine-time winners lived up to expectations, with a tightly contested match that nearly went into extra time.

But Nigeria’s Super Falcons booked their ticket when Michelle Alozie fired home in the 94th minute after a well-timed setup from Esther Okoronkwo, sealing a dramatic victory for the Super Falcons.

With the win, the Super Falcons stay on track for a record-extending 10th WAFCON title.

They will face either host nation, Morocco, or regional rivals Ghana in the final.
