Ever since the premier league and champions league matches have been on break, I haven't watched any other football cos those are the popular ones that people love to watch. So my country football match started which is called Women African Cup of Nation (WAFCON), I wasn't opportune to watch their matches until yesterday when they are playing their semi-final.

So the Nigerian women played against the Moroccans yesterday and a lot of cheats were made against Nigerians. The ball started with Morocco dominating the match and everything was fair till like 30+ minutes when Nigeria started dominating. The first half was really tough for both teams on a serious note and it ended with no goals from anyone.

So after 15mins break, the second half started before we knew it, a red card was given to one of the Nigeria players and what did she do? She steps on her opponent from behind mistakenly and the referee didn't know cos the lady has stood up and continued playing since it wasn't that serious but the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) called the attention of the referee and they concluded it was a red card. It was not even painful that much but at the same time, it was cos she was one of the key players.

The most painful part was when one of the Morocco players did exactly the same thing to one of the Nigeria players, it was overlooked and nothing was done about it. The event wasn't even replayed at all by the VAR. Fine, every other thing went as usual and it was after the red card Nigeria scored and it was 1 to nil. The pressure was much on the Nigeria team cos of the red card and it was not quite long, Nigeria conceded a goal and it was back to draw again.

It was not too far from the equalising goal that another red card came up. One of Nigeria's favourite and key players fouled someone and she was given a red card immediately. The foul wasn't different from what the Moroccan did but theirs was overlooked and ours was not overlooked. That was when the Nigerians knew it was all over for them but the girls had that fighting spirit in them that allow them fought till the last minute.

They really tried their best and lead the game to a penalty shootout and that was the stage they lost the game.

What they did that really pained me was the CHEAT they did. They did all they could cos they were the ones who host the cup and they also want to win it cos it was obvious with what they did. Cheating is one thing I detest so much and I don't like to experience it at all could I would never do it to anyone too.

The match pained me yesterday but nothing could be done to avoid it. I just have to accept it cos we are already used to the award. We won it back to back and it was only two we lost ever since they started playing the game but that cheating was a wicked one.

I hope it stops soon cos it's big-time wickedness.
