Nigeria’s Super Falcons have qualified for the Paris 2024 Olympic football event.
The Falcons secured the ticket after holding South Africa’s Banyana Banyana to a goalless in the second leg in Pretoria on Tuesday.
The result means the Falcons go through 1-0 on aggregate after winning the first leg last Friday.
It is a return to the Olympics for the Falcons whose last appearance was at the Beijing 2008.
After the 2008 games, the nine-time African champions failed to qualify for the London 2012, Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020.
Following their qualification, the Falcons will now be in Group C at the Olympics where they will face Brazil, Japan and world champions Spain.
