Super Falcons Star Jennifer Echegini Shines with Crucial Assist as PSG Edge Strasbourg


Paris Saint-Germain kept their title hopes alive with a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Strasbourg, thanks in part to a decisive assist from Super Falcons midfielder Jennifer Echegini

Following a frustrating goalless draw against Fleury and a 2-0 defeat to league leaders Lyon, PSG needed a strong response. Echegini provided just that, delivering a perfectly timed assist to Romee Leuchter, who broke the deadlock on the stroke of halftime

Nineteen minutes into the second half, PSG doubled their lead after Laurine Hannequin’s own goal. Despite a late push from Strasbourg, who pulled one back through Liana Joseph in stoppage time, PSG held firm to secure a vital win.

Echegini’s assist was her third of the season—her second in the league—bringing her total goal contributions to six. With PSG now third in the table with 33 points, just one behind second-placed Paris FC and seven adrift of Lyon, the title race remains open.

Next, PSG take on Montpellier on Saturday, where Echegini will go head-to-head with fellow Super Falcons star Ifeoma Onumonu in a highly anticipated clash.
