Everyone who watched the Super Falcons against Algeria in a recent two-legged international friendly can testify that Nasarawa Amazons midfield sensation, Josephine Mathias, caught the attention of fans, being easy on the eyes, besides her savoir-faire.
The 24-year-old sent heads turning over the legs with her outstanding physique and artistry, first during the 2-0 win at Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne on October 26 and the corresponding tie that ended 4-1 in favour of the Super Falcons at Mobolaji Johnson Arena in Onikan, Lagos, three days later.
Those were Josephine’s moments, and she has now joined Super Falcons players like Michelle Alozie, Rinsola Babajide, and Ashleigh Plumtree, who now have gained a cult-like following amongst fans because of their good looks and abilities.
Fierce, focused, and fearless, Josephine bossed the midfield for the Super Falcons with precision and power, holding fans spellbound with her physique, especially when backing the camera.
Her pictures have been major talking points amongst fans, especially males who, in the same vein, were mad over tennis icon Serena Williams for many years before sadly watching her end up in the arms of Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian in 2017.
Unknown to many, Josephine is not a greenhorn in international football, having featured prominently in the 2020 CAF Women’s Olympic qualifiers between August and October 2019.
She has also tasted European football in the colours of Turkish Women’s First Football club Trabzon İdmanocağı, making six appearances for the club in the 2017-18 season and leaving them after being relegated to the Women’s Second League.
Josephine returned to Nigeria and signed first with Rivers Angels before she rejoined her current club.
