Basketball: D’Tigress beat Australia in Olympics upset

African basketball champions, Nigeria’s D’Tigress, started their Paris Olympic Games on a winning note after they defeated their highly favoured Australian counterparts 75-62.

The team last won an Olympic match 20 years ago.

In what has been described as the biggest upset of the Olympics so far, Nigeria stunned the Opals.

The Rena Wakama-led ladies, in a spirited performance, beat the Australians 75-62 at the Pierre Mauroy Stadium.

It was the team’s first win in an Olympic match since Athens 2004.
