The Super Falconets of Nigeria have lost – as they did in 2010 – the FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup to Germany.
Only that this time, the Peter Dedevbo’s girls lost by a solitary goal scored by Lena Peterman in the 98th minute.
The Nigerians, though, would take scant consolation in seeing team star Asisat Oshoala emerge the winner of both the Adidas Golden Ball and Adidas Golden Boot awards.
Full list of individual award winners:

The Falconets have made us proud by going the farthest to fly the Nigerian flag high. NFF should harness these talents and keep them for the future. my special kudos to Azizat Osoala for her individual brilliance.
