Nigeria forward Asisat Oshoala has revealed her dad was not pleased with her goal celebration in the win over Australia at the ongoing 2023 Women's World Cup.
The Barcelona forward scored the third goal in the Super Falcons' 3-2 win over the tournament's co-hosts in their second group game.
Upon scoring what was her second goal for Nigeria in the last two years, the 28-year-old pulled her jersey off and ran to celebrate on the pitch side.
Her celebration raised lots of eyebrows on social media and in the footballing world with her father also reacting to it.
In a post on her Instagram page, the forward said her father was unhappy with her style.
"My dad is definitely not happy with my choice of celebration but then again, Life is a collection of MOMENTS," she wrote in the caption.
Nigeria following their win over Austria also went ahead to draw with the Republic of Ireland sealing their place in the last 16.
