Super Falcons star Ajibade learns new skill following Olympic disappointment

The captain of the Nigerian women's national team, Rasheedat Ajibade, has taken comfort in a new skill after the Super Falcons' heartbreaking elimination from the 2024 Olympics in Paris.

Nigeria got eliminated from the women’s Olympic football games, having lost all three games in the group stage.

Ajibade was in action for the Super Falcons in the group stage but failed to make an impact and was disappointed with Nigeria’s Olympic exit.

The Super Falcons lost to Brazil. Spain and Japan, but could only score one goal as a consolation for their disappointment.

Following the disappointing Olympic campaign, Ajibade has decided to put behind the teams' failure and take on a new skill.

The Atletico Madrid forward was seen practicing and learning how to play the piano which is different from her footballing ability.

She shared a tweet on X showing how she has improved her piano skills with a caption, “Need to get back to my piano class 😩😫...

“This was me after 1 week of learning. Praise the Lord! Praise God in his Temple! Praise his strength in heaven!”

She added a video to the tweet where she was singing a worship song and playing along with the piano.

Ajibade, who won the Club Atlético de Madrid Féminas Player of the Season award the previous season, is about to return to her passion for football rather than singing.
