U-20 WWC: Sabastine’s Late Strike Earns Falconets 1-0 Win Against South Korea

September 2, 2024

Nigeria’s Falconets began their campaign at this year’s FIFA U-20 women’s World Cup in Colombia on a perfect note after edging South Korea 1-0 in their Group D opener in the early hours of Monday.

Stade de Reim of France forward Flourish Sabastine’s late strike secured the three points for the Falconets.

Sabastine also scored a late goal for the Falconets when they defeated France 1-0 in their opening game of the 2022 U-20 women’s World Cup in Costa Rica.

The win against South Korea means the Falconets are second in Group D behind Germany, who thrashed Venezuela 5-2.

Meanwhile, the Falconets will be up against Germany in their second Group D game billed for September 4 while Korea will face Venezuela.

The Falconets dominated the opening five minutes of the encounter but could not carve out any real scoring opportunity.

In the 25th minute the Koreans went close but Folorunsho made a timely clearance.

Just two minutes later the Falconets should have broken the deadlock but Lucky missed a glorious chance.

With two minutes left in the first half Korea was presented with a decent chance but Hyeyoung failed to convert.

Then in one minute of first half stoppage time Kim Shinji saw her effort hit the post.

Let us relive the pain.

1:06 minute in this video.

It was late in the game, Oshoala played a shot, the keeper parried it and Chinwe headed the ball. It was going into the goal, but Loveth Ayila kicked it in and the referee blew for offside.

We would have won that game.

Germany scored in extra time and won the 2014 FIFA Under 20 World Cup.

Debate: Had the ball already crossed the line before Ayila kicked it?

You'll know that Chic is one of my favourite groups if you've been following this thread. This song heavily samples Chic's Chic Cheer (1978).

Faith Evans sampled it in Love Like This (1998).

This song samples Faith Evans' version. It also has a sample of Black Sheep's The Choice Is Yours (1991). Remember the line, "Engine, engine number 9, on the New York Transit Line"? (I've posted that on this thread).

US rapper Fatman Scoop has died aged 53 after collapsing at his concert on Friday in Connecticut, his representative has told the BBC.

He was halfway through his set at the Town Center Park in the city of Hamden when he collapsed on stage.

Mayor Lauren Garrett said in a post to Facebook that the rapper was taken to a local hospital by ambulance.

But his booking agency, MN2S, confirmed his death in a statement to the BBC, saying the New York native's "legacy will live on through his timeless music".

"Scoop was a beloved figure in the music world, whose work was loved by countless fans across the globe," an agency spokesperson.
"His iconic voice, infectious energy, and great personality made an indelible mark on the industry."

In a tribute on social media, Scoop's family said he was "a radiant soul, a beacon of light on the stage and in life."

"FatMan Scoop was not just a world class performer, he was a father, brother, uncle and a friend," his family said.

"He was the laughter in our lives, a constant source of support, unwavering strength and courage."

Scoop, whose legal name is Isaac Freeman III, has been credited as an influential figure in New York City’s hip hop scene in the 1990s.

He has featured on popular songs including Grammy award-winning Lose Control by Missy Elliott and It’s Like That by Mariah Carey.

Scoop is also known for his sleeper hit Be Faithful, which was originally released in 1999 but garnered international success in 2003, topping the charts in Ireland and the UK.

In 2004, the rapper was featured in the UK TV series Chancers on Channel 4, which featured musicians mentoring aspiring UK artists looking to achieve success in the US.

Fatman Scoop was also a contestant on Celebrity Big Brother 16: UK vs USA, which was housed in the UK and aired in 2015. He was the third housemate to be evicted.

His tour manager, DJ Pure Cold, wrote in a post on Instagram that he was “lost for words” at the news of his friend’s death.

“You took me all over the world and had me performing alongside you on some of the biggest and greatest stages on this planet,” he wrote.
“The things you taught me have truly made me the man I am today.”

Fatman Scoop was due to perform at the UK’s Reminisce Festival on 7 September. In a post on Instagram, the festival called the news of his death “devastating”.

“He was not just one of our most popular performers, he was a cherished member of the Reminisce family,” the festival said.

“His energy, talent and infectious spirit will be missed more than words can express.”
