10-Woman Super Falcons Beat Zambia 1-0 to Revive WAFCON Hopes
Nigeria’s Super Falcons revived their WAFCON 2026 campaign with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Zambia in Morocco. The defending champions played much of the match with 10 players after defender Tosin Demehin was sent off for a last-player foul on Barbra Banda. The result offers Nigeria a vital response after their opening defeat to Malawi. However, the performance also exposed concerns over defensive discipline and attacking fluency ahead of the next group match against Egypt. Zambia remain in a strong position despite the loss, having opened their campaign with a 6-0 win over Egypt. For the Super Falcons, the immediate task is to build on this resilience while avoiding further costly errors.
