Nnadozie Happy as Super Falcons Begins WAFCON With Big Win Over Tunisia
Super Falcons goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie has expressed her joy after Nigeria’s 3-0 win over Tunisia at the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations. The victory marks the first time the Super Falcons have won their opening WAFCON match since the 2016 tournament held in Ghana.
Nnadozie, who had little to do during the game thanks to Nigeria’s solid defence, still stood out with her sharp ball distribution from the back. Also, she gave credit to Tunisia, acknowledging that they played well despite the loss.
“I feel really good, it’s a great start for us,” Nnadozie said after the match. “The Tunisians are not a bad team at all, we respect them. They gave a good fight, but today was our day, and we want to keep going like this.”
The match was Nnadozie’s 22nd appearance for the Super Falcons, and she is expected to retain her spot in goal for Nigeria’s next group game against Botswana on Wednesday.
Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen has praised his new teammate, Rafael Leão, describing the Portuguese forward as a “good superstar” following the club’s 3-2 victory over Göztepe.
Galatasaray secured the win at the RAMS Park on Saturday, August 29, 2026, with Osimhen getting on the scoresheet as the Turkish champions claimed all three points.
Following the match, Galatasaray unveiled Leão to the home fans after completing his move from Italian side AC Milan. Reacting to the arrival of his new teammate, Osimhen said “Very good [signing]. Rafael Leão is a good superstar, I said it.”
Leão officially joined Galatasaray from AC Milan on Sunday, August 30, 2026, in one of the major moves of the summer transfer window.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
