Super Falcons captain Asisat Oshoala revealed that her father expressed displeasure over her celebration style after scoring the third goal against Australia in a FIFA Women’s World Cup match. During the thrilling encounter, Oshoala scored a crucial goal and celebrated by taking off her jersey, leaving just her bra top on the pitch.
While many spectators and online users had diverse reactions to her shirtless celebration, some argued that it was merely a display of intense excitement, and she was still clad more modestly than some women on the streets.
However, Oshoala’s father was among those who expressed reservations about her celebration style. In response, Oshoala shared some victorious moments from the match, including the shirtless celebration, on her Instagram page. She noted that life is a collection of moments and expressed gratitude for the opportunity to celebrate her achievements.
Accompanying the post, the five-time African Women Footballer winner wrote: “My dad is definitely not happy with my choice of celebration but then again, Life is a collection of MOMENTS. #Alhamdulilah #Grateful #Moments.”
