WAFCON: She thought she could score – Madugu on Okoronkwo’s decision to bypass Oshoala
Super Falcons head coach, Justin Madugu, has explained Esther Okoronkwo’s decision to shoot instead of passing the ball to teammate Asisat Oshoala during Nigeria’s 1-0 defeat to Cameroon in the quarter-finals of the CAF Women’s Africa Cup of Nations, WAFCON.
During the closing stages of the encounter on Sunday, Okoronkwo had an opportunity to level the score after breaking into a goal-scoring position, with Oshoala also available in a better position.
She opted to kick the ball away instead of passing it to the former Barcelona striker as Cameroon was awarded a goal kick.
Speaking on the development at his post-match interview, Madugu said, “I am sure she [Esther] felt she could score. That was why she attempted.
“She probably could have passed the ball to Asisat, who was in a better position to score. That is not to say there is any division. There is no division.”
