Super Falcons Player Ratings Against France : Nnadozie Composed; Onome & Ohale Brilliant; Chikwelu Shows Defensive Abilities, Oshoala Off Day

Allnigeriasoccer.com's Emmanuel Chinaza provides a lowdown on how the Super Falcons fared in the clash thus,

Chiamaka Nnadozie: Sprightly. Quick off her lines to thwart attacks and held on well to every shot from the opposition.

Could do little to deny Renard from the spot in the retaken penalty. (8/10)

Defenders

Chidinma Okeke: Energetic. Looked very much up to the task of matching the witty Niney for pace and put in a good showing overall. (7/10)

Onome Ebi:  Shackled Valerie Gauvin and never looked like she would get beaten to the ball in aerial duels. (9/10)

Osinachi Ohale: Another brilliant outing from Ohale. Put her body in the line now and then and battled admirably. (8.5/10)

Ngozi Ebere: Another of the laudable performers from this game. Contained every thing thrown at her for much of it, in earnest.

Unfortunately earned herself a second booking and a VAR-induced penalty for impeding Diani in the box. (7/10)

Midfielders

Halimatu Ayinde: Complimented Okobi in the middle and was technically solid. (6.5/10)

Rita Chikwelu: Sturdy in his midfield challenges — a bedrock to the team's solidity in the midfield battle and hardly looked relenting.

Booked. (7.5/10)

Ngozi Okobi: Raided the opposition rear on occasions and was up for it.

Dropped off down the left flank more often and provided some support for the attackers. (7/10)

Attackers

Francisca Ordega: Brought some flair with her movements though final crosses and end products was hit-and-miss. Dazzled occasionally. (6/10)

Asisat Oshoala: Went on a few rampaging runs but was well kept under lock and key by Mbock and noticeably tired too early in the second half. (5/10)

Desire Oparanozie: Forced a good reflex save from goalkeeper Sarah Bouhaddi early on and was also adept in helping out in the middle. (6/10)

The Substitutes

Evelyn Nwabuoku: Came on for Oparanozie and showed promise in getting behind the opposition defence. (5/10)

Anam Imo: Saw little to work on after her introduction (5/10)
