Africa Women’s Handball: Nigeria Beat Angola 28-24 To Claim 3rd
Nigeria’s under-18 Women’s Handball Team on Saturday in Monastir, Tunisia, defeated their Angola counterparts 28-24 in the third-place match of the ongoing Africa Women’s Youth Handball Championship.
They fought hard to beat Angola girls with five points difference in the first match 12-7.
They continued with the winning spirit in the second half to defeat the Angolans with a final score of 28-24.
Speaking later, Nigeria’s coach, Shittu Agboola, said his team played well.
“We wanted to play the final instead of the third place. Unfortunately, we lost the semi-final against Egypt yesterday.
“The most important thing which was a success to us is that we have qualified for the 2024 IHF Women’s Youth World Championship,” he said.
