Super Falcons goalkeeper named best female goalkeeper in Africa

Super Falcons goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie has been named the best goalkeeper in Africa, and the 14th best goalkeeper in the World by the International Federation of Football History and Statistics.

Chiamaka caught our attention at the recently concluded FIFA Women’s World Cup in France, playing in three games for the Super Falcons including the 2-0 win over South Korea where she became the youngest ever goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet in a Women’s World Cup game.

It was reported that her outstanding performance earned her a nomination in the Confederation of African Football shortlist for the African Women’s Player of the Year, alongside 3 time winner Asisat Oshoala and Forward, Uchenna Kanu.

The 19 year old currently plays in the Nigeria Women’s football League for Rivers Angels but is reported to be in talks for a move to Wolfsburg in the German Women’s Bundesliga.
