The Super Falcons of Nigeria have qualified for the women’s football event of the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
Nigeria defeated South Africa 1-0 on aggregate in the final round of qualifiers to book a place at the Games for the first time since 2008.
Despite the flurry of attack at its goal, the Super Falcons held on to a goalless draw at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium on Tuesday.
The Falcons will be playing at the Olympics for the fourth time. They qualified for the competition in 2000, 2004 and 2008.
The 2024 Olympics is billed to take place in Paris, France, from July 26 to August 11, 2024.
