According to Abiodun, there was a little drama at the start of the second half after a Cameroonian player attempted to plant a juju-like material at the Super Falcons’ goalpost.
The move probably targeted at Nigeria’s goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie was however checked.
Speaking with journalists during a post-match conference, the 20-year-old midfield maestro said:
“We kind of saw it as a point of distraction in the game and were able to keep our focus high, regardless of whatever they believed in. We believe in God and in God, we stand and put our trust. With God all things are possible. So, we don’t care about the voodoo.”
