Paris Olympics 2024: Late free-kick sinks Super Falcons as Spain claims victory


The Super Falcons of Nigeria faced a tough defeat, losing 1-0 to Spain in their second match at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Spain's Alexia Putellas scored a stunning free-kick in the 85th minute, breaking Nigeria's resilient defense at La Beaujoire Stadium on July 28, 2024. 

This loss follows their earlier defeat to Brazil, leaving the Falcons at the bottom of Group C. Despite lineup changes by coach Randy Waldrum, the Falcons struggled to convert their chances, with key opportunities slipping away. 

As things stand, they must win against Japan in their final group match to have any hope of progressing in the tournament.
