The Super Falcons gave their all but they were unlucky as they lost 5-4 on penalties to the Atlas Lionesses of Morrocco in a highly entertaining semi-final match at the ongoing Women's Africa Cup of Nations.

Two red cards to Halimat Ayinde and Rasheedat Ajibade saw the Super Falcons playing with nine players from the 70th minute but the Super Falcons held on till the extra time and penalty kicks before finally succumbing to the hosts.

Ifeoma Onumonu lost her kick and that proved costly as the Morrocan Ladies scored all their spot kicks to seal a historic place in the final and chance at winning their first African title.

While Morocco will be facing South Africa in the final, Nigeria and Zambia will be playing the loser's final.
