The exit of the champions in title and holders of the record of victories in Africa Cup was expected. The Super Falcons did not do any detail against last-minute picks. They beat their opponents of the day by 6 goals to 0. The star of the team, Asisat Oshoala is for many in this wide success.

One could speak of a show of force. The Nigerian national team, Super Falcons, entered the ball of the 10th edition of the African Cup of Nations women's football in the most thunderous way. Sunday, November 20, 2016 in the opening match of Pool B based in Limbe (South West region), she did not make gifts to the selection of Mali. The team retrieved at the last minute to replace Equatorial Guinea guilty of fraud, was beaten by 6 goals to 0. This is so far the heaviest score of the competition started on 19 November 2016 in the Cameroonian capital Yaoundé .

In this first meeting of the day and the Can at the sports stadium of Limbe, the Nigerians have gone to the floor. In the 6th minute the players of the former star Perpetua Nkwocha were signaled by an incursion of the sharp Asisat Oshoala. The latter was out of control as a badly exploited ball by the Malian defense in its penalty area was found in his feet. The reigning African champions continued their shelling in a defense of Mali feverishly. It remained for some of their opponents to use brutality to intercept them. As indeed Aissatou Diadhiou forced to mow the restless Francisca Ordega, well launched on the right flank of the Malian defense in the 11th minute. Mali reacts in the 14th minute.

By one-two taken from the center of the field by Diadhiou and Tangara. The ball is then transmitted to Binta who fails to beat the Nigerian coach Ibubeleye Whyte. The Nigerians are quick to take the initiative and as they move forward for the umpteenth time, Asisat Oshoala and his teammates finally find the net. The goal comes in the 21st minute. Somewhat eccentric on the right side, Oshoala sends the leather to the opponent's outer surface. One of her teammates touches it before another, Ordega scores from a nearly ground-level shot of 20 meters in the right angle of the goals of the unfortunate Goundo Samako.

The game then balances a moment. We then see Mali act but his players sin at the level of the last pass, the last move. Coach Oumar Guindo's girls will cash a 2nd goal in the 40th. It is the work of Asisat Oshoala who begins his offensive festival. After Sunday's Uchechu penalty (48 '), the Arsenal player in England is shaking Mali's net. In the 64th minute, she darkens right side, eliminates her vis-à-vis before beating Samako. In the 69th minute, Oshoala is still playing women who watch and the end of the right soles beat the door of Mali. The one who is elected at the end better player of the game ends her impressive ballet with a 4th personal goal. She writes it with a distant and unstoppable shot. Mali collapses so finally 6-0. His hangman meanwhile announces by this result and clearly his intention: keep the trophy brought back from Namibia in 2014. Ghana, his next opponent, also winner in his first match (3-1 to Ghana), will have to to be on guard during the opposition of 23 November.
