Rita Chikwelu sees yellow


Super Falcons meticulous midfielder Rita Chikwelu, who scored in her last league game, was yellow-carded yesterday in Sweden as her team blew away their first half lead to share the spoils against Goteborg women.

The Nigerian and her team mates were playing at home.

Actually, Rita's team Kristianstad had come from behind to score two goals in 41 and 44 minutes by Ivarsson and Guðmundsdóttir respectively having gone down to a goal by Koivisto in 22 minutes for the opposition.

With the goals 2:1 at that point, J. Zigiotti-Olme scored for the visitors in 60 minutes to make it 2:2 and that was how it ended.

Thirty one year old Rita, who can also play as an attacker, has scored no less than 15 goals for the Super Falcons of Nigeria since 2007
