Ashleigh Plumptre Shunned England For Nigeria, Her Fatherland Ashleigh Plumptre’s Powerful Journey Of Identity, Leadership, And Legacy Ashleigh Plumptre was named in the CAF 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) Best XI for the group stage. According to a report by Cafonline.com on July 17, her inclusion was evidence of not only her defensive excellence but also to a remarkable football journey rooted in heritage, resilience, and ambition. Known for her composed leadership, tactical intelligence, and crucial interceptions, the 27-year-old Al-Ittihad captain has emerged as a central figure in Nigeria’s pursuit of a record-extending 10th Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title. But Plumptre's rise is far deeper than her current accolades—it is the story of a woman who embraced her identity and charted her own path. Born in Leicester, England, Plumptre began her football journey in the English youth setup, proudly donning the Three Lions shirt at U-15, U-17, U-19, and U-23 levels. Her club career spanned stints with Notts County, LA Galaxy OC, and notably Leicester City, where she played a vital role in securing the FA Women’s Championship title in the 2020/21 season. In 2022, ahead of that year’s WAFCON, Plumptre made a deeply personal and symbolic decision to represent Nigeria—her father’s homeland—over continuing with the English national team. Her switch was more than a footballing move; it was a declaration of heritage, belonging, and purpose. Since then, she has become an integral part of the Super Falcons setup. A leader both on and off the pitch, Plumptre brings structure to the Nigerian defence and experience to a squad that blends youth and veterans. Her performance during the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup—especially in the intense Round of 16 showdown against England—drew international acclaim. Plumptre has also added attacking flair to her game, finding the back of the net in domestic league action and remaining a threat on set pieces. Yet, her ambitions stretch beyond the white lines of the pitch. With an eye on the future, Plumptre is actively working toward obtaining a UEFA coaching licence. Ashleigh Plumptre is not just playing football—she’s living a legacy. Her journey from Leicester to Lagos, from England's youth teams to Nigeria's defensive backbone, speaks volumes about courage, identity, and the impact of believing in something bigger than oneself.

Renowned/Award winning FIFA referee, Salima Mukansanga, was in charge of VAR last night in the WAFCON final match between host country, Morocco vs Nigeria. Salima is not the type of referee to overlook just any act, much less in a more crucial game like the final match of the just concluded tournament. About VAR cancelling the penalty, the center referee, no offence, did a marvelous job with the officiating and was fair with both sides, but what she had seen as handball, was in deed not handball. Now let me state the handball rules in football. “According to latest IFAB handball rules of FIFA, if the ball touches a player’s hand while the hand is vertical/parallel and behind the player’s trunk, it will not count as a penalty. Another reason why that call was void by VAR, was because the Moroccan player was too close to the Nigerian player, hence it counted as a hand to ball instead of ball to hand. Look at this photo clearly. It would only take en experienced referee to make a decision, and this was where Salima Mukansanga showed her prowess. Thank you Salima for making the right call. We’ve also known you to be fair and just. 🤝

She’s Arguably the most decorated Female Athlete & Footballer from Nigeria 🇳🇬. Her Names are Asisat Lamina Oshoala. She’s a Nigerian professional footballer who plays as a striker for National Women's Soccer League club Bay FC and the Super Falcons Nigeria national team. There are some uncomfortable discussions I am willing to have when this woman finally retires. We all grew up wanting to ball like some African idols like Eto, Drogba, Jay Jay, Kanu, etc. I tell you, almost every young African female footballer looks up to this lady right here. Her achievements are so loud that she doesn't need to speak for herself. It speaks for her. — 6x African Player of the Year (Record) — 4x WAFCON champion (2nd most) — 3x La Liga champion — 3x Copa Del Reina champion — 3x Spanish Super Copa champion — 2x UCL champion — 2x Chinese League champion — 1x English FA Cup champion — BBC World's Women Footballer of the Year (2015) — African Women's Youth Player of the Year (2014) — African Women's Championship Golden Ball (2014) — African Women's Championship Golden Boot (2016) — FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup Golden Boot (2014) — FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup Golden Ball (2014) — Primera División Top scorer (2021–22) — Chinese Women's Super League Top scorer (2017) — IFFHS CAF Best Woman Player of the Decade (2011–2020) — IFFHS All-time Africa Women's Dream Team (2021) — IFFHS CAF Women's Team of the Decade (2011–2020) — IFFHS Women's CAF Best Player of the Year (2020 and 2021) — IFFHS Women's CAF Team of the Year (2020, 2021, 2023) — Queen of The Pitch Award (2014) For a long time, she has already certified her spot as the greatest African female footballer of all time, but she is already to me, a Top 10 African footballer, dead or alive, male or female.
