D’Tigress of Nigeria on Saturday continued their impressive run in the 2017 FIBA AfroBasket for Women holding in Bamako, Mali as they crushed Congo 84-47 points in their second game of the tournament.

The coach Sam Vincent-led side opened the first quarter with 23-8 points lead and added another 18 points while the Congolese had the upper hand in the quarter with 22 points to end the first half with 41-30 points in favour of the Nigerian women.

The third quarter however ended with few points but the D’Tigress were still good enough to win it 11-8.

The last quarter which was delayed for some minutes was easily won by the Aisha Mohammed-captained side with 32-9 points to end the game with an 89-47 points blowout.

Nigeria, who defeated Mozambique on Friday, will continue their title chase in the AfroBasket for Women on Sunday when they face Egypt.
