D’Tigress Triumph
Nigeria’s senior women’s basketball team, D’Tigress, have emerged winners of the 2017 FIBA Women’s AfroBasket Championship after defeating Senegal 65-48 points in the final. The Nigerian ladies had an excellent run in the tournament as they came out on top from each of the seven games they played at Bamako, Mali. They however started Sunday’s final game on a bad note, as they lost the first quarter 12-18 points to the Senegalese. D’Tigress doubled their efforts in the second quarter to win the period with 21-10 points advantage to end the first half with 33-28 points.
The third quarter was clearly dominated by the Nigeria side which recorded 15 points against 7 for Senegal, and lastly grabbed 17 points against Senegal’s 13 points in the fourth quarter to win the game with 65-48 points. Nigeria, who already qualified for the FIBA World Cup in Spain when they beat hosts Mali in the semifinal on Saturday, are now champions of the continent for the third time. The team coach, Sam Vincent led Nigeria to win the 2003 and 2005 editions and has now added the 2017 edition to make it his third title in the Championship.

Madrid Beats Man United to Win Back-to-Back UEFA Super Cup



Madrid Beats Man United to Win Back-to-Back UEFA Super Cup
European champions, Real Madrid, have retained the UEFA Super Cup after grabbing a 2-1 victory over Manchester United in Skopje, Macedonia on Tuesday. The victory means the La Liga champions are the first club to win the Super Cup twice in a row since AC Milan achieved it in 1990. Zinedine Zidane’s men dominated from the start and led when Casemiro slid in a half-volley 24 minutes into the game. They doubled their lead early into the second half when Isco calmly slotted in from eight yards after a neat one-two with Gareth Bale.
Manchester United pulled one back in the 67th minute as new signing, Romelu Lukaku, tapped in to make the score 2-1. Cristiano Ronaldo, who started from the bench, came in just eight minutes to stoppage time for Karim Benzema, and joined his side to a deserved victory at the Macedonian capital. As it stands, only Barcelona and AC Milan have won more Super Cup matches (five) than Real Madrid (four). And United Boss, Jose Mourinho, becomes the first manager to lose three European Super Cup matches, having lost it with Chelsea in 2013 and with FC Porto in 2003.
