Super Falcons stars Osinachi Ohale and Chinwendu Ihezuo put out a stunning performance on Saturday morning, each scoring a goal to inspire Pachuca to a dramatic comeback win over Tigers in their Liga MX Femenil clash.

Super Falcons Stars Strike as Pachuca Turn the Tide

While Ohale scored the second goal that put her team in front after a 1-1 tie, her compatriot Ihezuo delivered the winning strike as Pachuca edged past Tigers 3-2 in a thrilling encounter, Footballrover reports.

Fresh off winning the 2024 WAFCON title with the Falcons of Nigeria, the 33-year-old defender registered her second goal of the campaign, while 28-year-old Ihezuo celebrated her first of the season.

María Sánchez had opened the scoring in the 20th minute to give Tigers the early lead, but Charlyn Corral pulled Pachuca level from the penalty spot just before halftime.

Barely two minutes into the second half, Nigerian international Ohale powered in a header to complete the turnaround and hand Pachuca the advantage.

Chinwendu Ihezuo Delivers the Decisive Blow

The hosts responded quickly through Diana Ordóñez’s strike in the 57th minute, setting up a frantic finish.

The decisive moment came in the 76th minute when Ihezuo calmly slotted home, sealing the win for Pachuca and capping a dramatic contest.

That victory moves Pachuca into 7th place on the Liga MX Femenil Apertura table with 14 points after seven rounds of matches.

Pachuca are now unbeaten in their last three games, with two wins and a draw, and will look to carry that momentum into their next fixture against Chorrillo on Wednesday.
