Its an ankle twist similar to Musiala's. All the best to Salgado. Wishing her a speedy recovery after surgery.

Is there an image or video of it?

daveP:
Ohale should not be attempting a pull at that section of the pitch. Simple. It is a PK. Even if she redeemed herself with that goal line clearance, she messed up with that pk. Simple!!

Alozie is causing problems for Ohale
Alozie gets beat a lot on the run

QueenJazz:
South Africans will be cursing us under their breath by now.

We beat them narrowly in the 2023 AFCON semi finals

And now we've gotten another narrow win in the 2025 WAFCON semi finals

Back then, we beat them in the 2000 AFCON semi finals too

Anytime they hear Nigeria and semi finals in the same sentence, their legs go dey shake

Add 2019 AFCON when Ekong scored the winning goal at the closing minute of the match

Compound fracture.
Debbie Ajibola plowed into her during the goalmouth scramble in the 83rd minute, which was an unfortunate accident.
Really hope Gabriella Salgado is okay and wish her a speedy recovery.
This really discolors the SF victory. 😕🙁

Thank you! Very good observations..

I’ve followed since the Zambia game and his changes have been like for like. Doesn’t seem like one with a plan B if his plan A gets shot.



I was saying here too that those girls are tired and Ijamilusi should have gone off since. Baba no dey hear anything o. Let’s hope that final too goes well

Yeah. It looks like he's found his advantage in Ihezuo and Esther and so he no wan look anybody else for that bench.😂😂

I expected Rinsola to play a few minutes. Even wanted an Ordega for Ijamilusi change after the Salgado injury. But na someone else come.

Abi the man bin dey plan for extra time ni only for Alozie to say No way!??

Kibbs:

Her leg was in a cast when they lifted her up on the stretcher. Then camera shapali went to the crowds chanting her name.

ThePresenceWtf:
Demehin is one Useless Player!

She carried the ball out from her defense, Progressed nicely with the ball, now callously gave the ball away to a South African under no pressure, leaving her defense open for an attack, and yet jogging back 😂😩😩

The way you throw insults sha

I agree with this part. The thing is why didn't she expect a run from that player? Sotey she had to pull.


Again, as this Madugu dey shout shout for Esther, not once did he scream down on Alozie to better. Abi na cos she farrr from his side ni? 🤣🤣🤣

Man ought to notice that and make amends but no. I dunno the duty of his assistants sha. I noticed one oyinbo on our bench as well. They ought to be his eyes. Unless he doesn't want their observations sha.

Am happy with the way and manner we won. The Zambia game put us on a false pedestal but this game has brought us down to earth. We (fans and team) would be more cautious against the winner of Morocco/Ghana.

Tough game
Who badly tackled Salgado ?
Looked like Abiodun 🤔
Make we sha no get red card for finals
Our coach is just floating long balls

Poor Gabriela.
Her career has been plagued with injuries and she just returned from a major one to make this team to the WAFCON.
Really feel for her and wish her a speedy recovery. Can’t help but feel real sad for her.

Infact i feel it dampened the SA entire team for the following minutes prior to that goal. The SA press may decide to milk this on Abiodun at this rate. But the Nigerian fans chanting in solidarity for Gabriella was commendable.

That's 1year away from football activities. 😞😞😞😫😫😫😫😫😫😫

Sorry to all South African fans. Our wishes for speedy recovery are with her.

Our players better get ready
The finals will be 3 times tougher
The referee, smoke/flares, laser & flash lights from spectators as well as bad treatment from Moroccan authorities to try to make that final a bad day for them
Nigerian fans better get into the stadium 4 hours before else
Remember Ivory Coast Afcon 2024 finals & how many Nigerian fans were denied access to the stadium

Our coach isn’t good
Floating balls isnt it
We won’t get anything from European teams if we play like that
Our girls grit & Salgado’s predicament helped us squeeze this one over the line
Echegini couldn’t create anything in the middle & she may be injured now
Hopefully Toni Payne can step up

Deborah or ihezuo?

Kudos to the girls. They really tried their best. But our coach is horrible. Barks orders all day long instead of analysing the game. Players were visibly tired,didn't change them. If he wants to be barking orders,why doesn't he just instruct his assistants to be assessing the physical conditions of the players then. That folashade girl should have been subbed off early into the second half. Now we have rinsola,Payne who haven't since like the first match day. If we happen to need them in the final,I hope they won't be too far off

Yellow Card 🤔
One journalist nicknamed her yellow card magnet

We are in the final but we have concerns. That's one funny thing about life. Doesn't mean such concerns should be sidelines, overlooked or shutdown. Striving to be better and formidable is the reach. We all know we are here mainly because these ladies are super resilient and determined, especially the Captain, Rasheedat.

Congratulations to the scrappy win. Na God save us cos even before that injury, we were on the back foot. Ajibade as POTM means na MVP she go end up with. Not even Banda will challenge her on APOTY going forward. But there's Cheebak to contend with sha.

If to say man get some technical levels for body, i for say he used the Jpes approach but that's a far reach to be sincere.

She was lost today mehnn. This should be the last attempt of Rash and JOE together henceforth. I thought it would work considering one is a work machine and the other is on flair. But e no work atalllll. The Roles given Esther and Ihezuo when SA was playing out from the back pushed the middle to farr out of reach and that affected building down the middle if Esther wasn't involved.

I just saw the replay. It deserved red card. Red card naim that tackle be. It was reckless and ill timed. Gabriella wasn't even rushing to contend that ball when Debbie sweeped her leg off the ground. Naaahhhhh. That was super reckless mehn.

Morocco vs Ghana game is live on YouTube. How come none of our games have been shown on YouTube

zhike:
Banyana Banyana is going to destroy Super Falcons in the semi finals.

Will you keep quiet?

Goooalazo..by Ghana..1:0

Replay shows it was Debbie - pink hair.

Samueltemi337:

God...almost another...

It’s possible the WAFCON refs committee may recommend a red card and extended ban for Debbie, retroactively.
It’s been done before after review.

Shit happens!. It's football, a contact sport. And there's a referee to officiate the match and make the right calls. So if Debbie made a needless and reckless tackle, and got away without a booking, it's on the ref.

Wishing Gabriella Salgado a quick recovery but for me, her injury does not subtract from our victory.

i like this morocco vs ghana referee so far

I have watched this referee twice now in this competition and to me she has been by far the best referee in the competition.
