Two Falconets who were tested for dope have been given a clean bill of health by FIFA.By Tunde Eleduni
On August 19, shortly after the team’s opening game against Korea Republic, the players’ urine samples were collected for a doping test.
It is the practice of FIFA to randomly pick two players from both sides after a game for the test.
Oparanozie who would be featuring in her fifth World Cup appearance has a goal to her credit; it was against Korea Republic in the opening group game.
During Nigeria’s last group match, she had the opportunity of increasing her tally but had her attempt at goal saved by Italian keeper, Laura Giuliani.
Oparanozie is expected to be in action again when Nigeria takes on Mexico in the quarter final on Thursday.
