Nnadozie Wins Back-to-Back with Best Goalkeeper Award at CAF Awards 2024

Chiamaka Nnadozie is brimming with joy after being named the Best Goalkeeper in Africa at the 2024 CAF Awards.
This marks the second consecutive year that the Super Falcons star has clinched the prestigious title, having first earned the honor in 2023.
At just 24 years old, Nnadozie has carved out an impressive reputation as one of the continent’s top shot-stoppers.
Nnadozie’s year has been nothing short of remarkable.
As the first-choice goalkeeper for Paris FC, she played a pivotal role in helping her team secure qualification for the UEFA Women’s Champions League.
Competing at such a high level in Europe’s elite women’s tournament further cemented her status as a top-tier goalkeeper.
She was a standout performer for the Nigerian national team, the Super Falcons, delivering incredible saves and displays of leadership during the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
In her acceptance speech at the CAF Awards ceremony, Nnadozie expressed deep gratitude and humility.
“I was here last year, and I’m incredibly grateful to be here again.
I want to thank God for making this possible,” she said, acknowledging the support she’s received along her journey.
She didn’t forget to credit the key figures behind her success.
“A big thank you to the CAF President and the Nigerian Football President for their continuous efforts in promoting women’s football.
I’m also grateful to my club, Paris FC, for believing in me and investing in my growth,” she shared.

Mbappe Breaks Di Stéfano’s 71-Year-Old Real Madrid Goal Record

Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappe has shattered a 71-year-old club record held by Alfredo Di Stéfano. On Wednesday, Mbappe scored his 28th LaLiga goal of the season in just his 32nd league game, setting a new record for the most goals scored by a Real Madrid player in their debut league season. Di Stéfano’s record of 27 goals from the 1953-54 season finally fell, but Mbappe still has two games left to extend his tally.
The match itself was a tense battle. Real Madrid needed an injury-time goal to snatch a 2-1 victory over Mallorca and keep their hopes alive in the title race. After going behind early to a Martin Valjent strike, Mbappe pulled one back in the 68th minute, and Jacobo Ramon sealed the win deep into stoppage time.
This win is crucial for Carlo Ancelotti’s team after a damaging defeat to Barcelona last weekend, which left Real four points behind their rivals. Barcelona can clinch the league with a win in their local derby against Espanyol, but a draw or loss would keep the title race wide open heading into the final two matches.
Di Stéfano remains one of Real Madrid’s greatest scorers with 306 goals in 392 games, but only Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, and Raul have surpassed his total goals for the club. Now, Mbappe is making his mark among the legends.

Tolu Arokodare Makes History as Sixth Nigerian to Win the Ebony Shoe Award

Super Eagles forward Tolu Arokodare has added his name to an elite list by becoming the sixth Nigerian to win the prestigious Ebony Shoe award. He now stands alongside legends like Daniel Amokachi, Victor Ikpeba, Godwin Okpara, Celestine Babayaro, and Paul Onuachu as Nigerian winners of the award, which is given to the best African player in the Belgian league.
Arokodare is the 34th recipient of the prize and was presented the award by Pierre Kompany, father of Bayern Munich coach Vincent Kompany. He beat tough competition from fellow Nigerian Raphael Onyedika, DR Congo’s Noah Sadiki, Moroccan talent Zakaria El Ouahdi, and Promise David—who now represents Canada.
Reacting to the win, Arokodare said, “I’m very happy and honestly speechless. It’s a huge honour to be the sixth Nigerian to win this. It means a lot to be part of Belgian and Nigerian football history.”

Gary Neville Says Man United Must Sell at Least 10 Players to Fix the Team

Manchester United icon Gary Neville has urged the club to clear out at least ten players this summer if they want to fix their ongoing struggles. It’s been a dismal season for the Red Devils, especially in the Premier League, where they’re on track for their worst finish ever. With 17 losses already, it’s their most defeats in over five decades.
Speaking on The Overlap, Neville didn’t hold back, saying, “There are about eight to ten players who need to go. Three or four will leave as their contracts run out, but the club has to actively move out five or six more—even if it means paying them off.” He went on to describe United as a “graveyard” for new signings over the past ten years, with Bruno Fernandes being the rare exception.
United currently sit 16th in the league with two matches left, but they still have a shot at ending the season on a high when they face Tottenham in the Europa League final later this month.
