The Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) is an exciting continental competition where the best women’s national football teams in Africa come together to battle for supremacy.

As the Super Falcons of Nigeria began their campaign in Morocco, they were keen to show their strength.

In their opening Group B match against Tunisia, they came out with a dominant 3-0 win, with notable performances from Rinsola Babajide, Asisat Oshoala, and Chinwendu Ihezuo.

But one moment stood out more than the rest — a celebration that held deeper meaning.

Rinsola Babajide, the talented Nigerian forward, was in top form.

She not only assisted in the first goal of the match but also found the back of the net herself in the first half.

The Super Falcons had the game in control, and with a 2-0 lead at halftime, it seemed like it would be a smooth ride to victory.

However, it was Babajide’s goal celebration that caught the eye.

Babajide celebrated her first-half goal with a tribute to someone she deeply admired — Diogo Jota.

The former Liverpool forward tragically passed away just days before the match.

In a sad moment of remembrance, Babajide honoured Jota’s memory with her gesture.

The tribute, which many saw as a touching homage, spoke volumes about the tight-knit nature of football’s global community.

For Liverpool fans, this tribute was especially meaningful.

Diogo Jota had been a beloved figure at the club, known not only for his skill on the pitch but also for his character off it.

In the midst of Nigeria’s convincing 3-0 victory over Tunisia, Babajide’s tribute added an emotional layer to the game, reminding everyone that football is more than just a sport — it’s a community.

It’s about honoring those who’ve left an indelible mark on the game, regardless of nationality.
