Super Falcons striker, Asisat Oshoala has revealed that her dad was not happy with the mode of her celebration after netting Nigeria’s third goal against co-hosts, Australia in the FIFA Women’s World Cup.
The Barcelona striker entered the game in the 63rd minute and Nigeria took the lead two minutes later for the first time, 2-1. Within nine minutes, Oshoala scored a goal that sealed an upset victory, sparking her jersey-shedding celebration.
Speaking through her instagram handle @asisat_oshoala said: “My dad is definitely not happy with my choice of celebration but then again, Life is a collection of MOMENTS,” she wrote.
Oshoala started in last week’s opening 0-0 draw against Canada, but struggled in the aftermath with a hamstring injury and hopefully she will be fit for Ireland match come next week.
