AWCON 2016: Falcons held to 1-1 draw by Ghana

Nigeria were held to a 1-1 draw in their second group fixture on Wednesday, at the ongoing African Womens Cup of Nations in Limbe, Cameroon.

The Super Falcons took the lead after Portia Boakye turned the ball into her own net in the 19th minute.

Ghana equalized just before half time, after Elizabeth Addo converted from the penalty spot.


The result now means both countries now have four points each.

The Falcons however still top the group on superior goals difference.

Nigeria will face Kenya on Sunday and Ghana will take on fellow West Africans Mali in the final group matches.
