The top striker of the Women team of Nigeria Asisat Oshoala says her father is unhappy with her decision to take off her dress, while celebrating her goal for the Super Falcons in their 3-2 win over Australia at the ongoing Women’s World Cup.
Asisat came off the bench to put Nigeria 3-1 up and in the process became the first African to score in three different Women’s World Cups, and took off her dress as she celebrates the milestone.
That decision to take off her dress didn’t particularly go down well with her father, who is a practicing Muslim and a Facebook post on a handle allegedly belonging to the Barcelona Femeni star made this known.
“My dad is definitely not happy with my choice of celebration but then again, Life is a collection of MOMENTS.” – Asisat Oshoala
She will be hoping all the dust raised by the decision goes down on time for her to focus on the team’s last game against the Republic of Ireland, where a win will secure their spot in the knock out round of the tournament.
