1 / 5

Cameroon goalkeeper Michaely Bihina produced a standout display as the Super Falcons lost 1-0 in the WAFCON 2026 quarter-final in Casablanca. Bihina made nine saves from Nigeria's 19 attempts and kept a clean sheet after Myriam Maeva Nyadjou scored Cameroon’s decisive goal in the 19th minute. Her key moment came in the 70th minute, when she tipped Uchenna Kanu’s powerful header away. The 22-year-old was named Woman of the Match as Cameroon secured qualification for the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Brazil. Nigeria will now look to the remaining qualification route for a place at the tournament.

Nineteen attempts and no goal is a painful stat. Was Bihina simply outstanding, or did Nigeria lack enough composure in front of goal?

Do you think the nine saves point more to Cameroon's goalkeeper's quality or Nigeria's finishing choices?

Nine saves and a clean sheet in a quarter-final is a huge goalkeeping performance. Cameroon made their one decisive goal count.

The result should not be reduced to Nigeria missing chances alone; Cameroon also defended well enough to protect Nyadjou's goal.

Nigeria will need to review the final ball and finishing from those 19 attempts. Creating chances matters, but converting them decides knockout matches.
