Falcons of Nigeria hold Sweden to 3-3 DRAW in fantastic women world cup match!
In surely a game that will be remembered as one of the best in the ongoing women world cup 2015 in Canada,the Nigeria women team,Falcons tore the world renowned Sweden team apart! Sweden started the game with 2 goals in the 1st half,the first goal scored by Sweden was an own goal in the 21st minute,from a corner kick which a Nigerian player Oparanozie deflected into her own goal.It was a very sloppy goal..Sweden then followed with another goal coming from another set piece in the 31st minute,the Nigerian defence were all over the place and conceded another sloppy goal by
Fischer,even though they had been the most enterprising of the two sides so far ion the game.

The 1st half ended and Nigeria came in for the second half continuing from where they left off.Attacking and running at the Sweden defence with pace.The Falcons were rewarded when Okobi scored a beautifully crafted goal in the 50th minute.The stadium erupted with applause as the neutrals were now all behind the entertaining Nigerian Falcons.A few minutes later,53rd minute to be precise,Asisat Oshoala who had been a thorn in the Swedish teams flesh,scored another goal and the Nigerian Falcons team celebrated like they had won the world cup itself!

Falcons of Nigeria celebrate goal against Sweden,

The Falcons created more chances but the final ball kept lettin them down.As expected in football,when you don't take your chances,the other team goes down the other end and punish you.This was just what happened in the 60th minute,when Swedish player Sembrant finished off a beautiful move that involved five player,with the ball finally bouncing off her mid riff into the net! Sweden were once again in front.
Falcons kept creating more chances and Asisat Oshoala missed a glorious chance to equalise when she sliced the ball in front of an empty net.

But the Falcons never gave up,kept pushing and finally Ordega was put through by a beautiful pass and she slid the ball through the legs of the Sweden keeper who came rushing out! A truly fantastic game and after this match,USA and Australia who are in Nigeria's group must be very wary of the Falcons ,the champions of Africa who have emerged as dark horses for the 2015 women world cup tournament.
