Nnadozie, Oshoala in Potential Champions League Clash

Date:

Chiamaka Nnadozie was between the sticks to help Paris FC secure qualification to the group stage of the UEFA Women’s Champions League.

On Wednesday, Paris FC faced Wolfsburg in the return leg of the final qualifying round of the competition, and Nnadozie was on duty.

 

 

The sides had battled to a 3-3 first leg result at the Stade Sébastien Charléty, and were poised for a crunch clash in Wolfsburg.

Wednesday’s game had over 3,700 in attendance, and on paper was sure to serve up an exciting contest.

However, the two-time champions were stunned as the Paris club secured a 2-0 win.

A goal in each half from Julie Dufour (38′) and Louise Fleury (90′) settled the tie for Paris FC to snatch a 5-3 aggregate win.

It was also an eventful night for Chiamaka Nnadozie, who was called up for penalty duties.

The 22 year-old has the better of her opponent to keep a clean sheet on the night.

Seeded in Pot 4, Paris FC could potentially face holders, FC Barcelona in the group stage of the competition.

A fixture that will pitch Nnadozie against Asisat Oshoala.

All 16 teams will find out their group stage opponents on October 20.
