God of Soccer is Still Nigerian! Falcons Celebrate Wildly as Round of 16 Qualification is Confirmed

June 21, 20190212

The God of Soccer is indeed Nigerian! And he delivered on Thursday night at the Roazhon Park in Rennes to the distraught of Chile, who fell short of a goal to hand Nigeria a round of 16 ticket at the FIFA Women’s World Cup.

Overall, it was an agonizing, nerve-racking 50-hour wait in trepidation for the Falcons squad and a sizeable portion of the 190 million population back home.

But the reaction of the players in their hotel room at the blast of the final whistle captured the feeling of an entire football nation.

Nigeria march on to the next round of the competition where they will next face Germany at the Stade des Alpes in Grenoble.
