[Cyprus Cup] Rita Chikwelu’s Brace Ensure Nigeria’s Super Falcons Defeat Slovakia




Having surrendered their three-goal lead, the Super Falcons left it late to claim their first win against an Europeans side.

Rita Chikwelu scored twice as Nigeria responded to their Austria humiliation with a 4-3 triumph over Slovakia on Friday.

Spanked 4-1 at AEK Arena on Wednesday, pressure was on the Africans to end their poor run against European oppositions and they left it late to snatch a win at the Antonis Papadopoulos Stadium.

Chikwelu's brace plus strikes from Oshinachi Ohale and Anam Imo guaranteed Thomas Dennerby's side got their first win at the Cyprus Cup.
