D’Tigress Shock Australia In First Olympic Win In 20 Years

 

D’Tigress of Nigeria have beaten the Opals of Australia 75-62 in women’s basketball at the Paris Olympics.

Point guard Ezinne Kalu produced a clutch performance, inspiring the Rena Wakama-coached team to withstand a late rally from the Aussies at the Pierre Mauroy Stadium on Monday.

The victory was Nigeria’s first at the Games since Athens 2004.
