Super Falcons striker Rasheedat Ajibade is on verge of winning
her first club trophy after her Atletico Madrid Femenino qualified
for the final of Spanish Supercopa.
Atletico defeated favorites FC Barcelona Femení in the semifinal
on Wednesday.
The Madrid side secured the famous win via penalty shoot out
after the sides played out a 1-1 draw in the regulation and extra
time.
Merel van Dongen put Atletico in front in the 59th minutes, but
Alexia Putellas equalised for Barcelona with just a minute into the
90s.
Defending champions Barcelona managed to convert just one of the
spot kicks attempted, while Atletico scored three to seal their
place in the final.
Ajibade did not feature in the game although she was named as a
sub, meanwhile, Oshoala was a second half substitute.
