Super Falcons held Cameroon to a barren draw in the first leg of the third round of the 2024 Paris Olympics qualifiers on Friday evening.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n Defenders<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Michelle Alozie: Not her best game for the Super Falcons. Not much was seen from her offensively before she was brought off. 5.5\/10<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n Oluwtosin Demehin:Like Ohale, she made sure her feathers weren’t ruffled and dealt well with the physicality of the Cameroonians’ attackers. 7.5\/10<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Ashleigh Plumptre: She returned to the side after a long hiatus and didn’t look as if she ever left. Started the game at left back but finished on the opposite flank, showing her dexterous physicality. 7.5\/10<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Midfielders and strikers<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n Rasheedat Ajibade: The skipper also had a poor game offensively but worked her socks off defensively. 6\/10<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The substitutes\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Abdulkareem Abdulhamid<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Copyright ANS<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nAllnigeriasoccer.com<\/strong> runs the rule over the Nigerian players in action in the encounter.<\/p>\n
\nThe starters<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nGoalkeeper<\/p>\n
\nChiamaka Nnadozie: The Paris FC shot-stopper showed yet again why she is the safest hands on the continent, keeping the Super Falcons in the game with her saves and calmness. \u00a08.5\/10<\/p>\n
\nOsinachi Ohale: The veteran centre-back matched the physicality of the Indomitable Lionesses and she was calm in doing so, playing a vital role in the Super Falcons keeping a clean sheet. 8\/10<\/p>\n
\nHalimatu Ayinde: Failed to impose herself on the game and was unsurprisingly taken off at the start of the second half. 5.5\/10<\/p>\n
\nDeborah Abiodun: She started the game slowly but grew into it and contributed to the Super Falcons regaining control of the game in the second half. 6.5\/10<\/p>\n
\nChristy Ucheibe: \u00a0Also didn’t play well in the first half but helped the record African champions threaten the Cameroonian defense later on in the game. 6.5\/10<\/p>\n
\nToni Payne: Fumbled a chance to put Oshoala on goal in the first half and was surprisingly left on the pitch for far too long. 5\/10<\/p>\n
\nAsisat Oshoala: Had a quiet game and failed to convert the Super Falcons’ best chance of the game. 4.5\/10<\/p>\n
\nJennifer Echegini: She was the most impactful substitute and could have gotten a goal as a reward for her efforts. The Cameroonians couldn’t lay a hand on her. 8\/10<\/p>\n
\nEsther Okoronkwo: Contributed to Nigeria retaining control of the game in the second half but wasn’t as imposing as Echegini. 6.5\/10<\/p>\n
\nRinsola Babajide: The former Liverpool forward was blunt when she came on and didn’t make a case for herself to start the second leg. 4\/10<\/p>\n
\nRofiat Imuran: Not much was seen from the young left-back when she came on, was lucky to have been bailed out after she got dribbled past easily by one of the Cameroon forwards. \u00a04\/10<\/p>\n
\nIfeoma Onumonu: Should have been brought on earlier, and spent very little time on the field to make an impact.N\/A<\/p>\n
