Rasheedat Ajibade once again proved her value for Paris Saint-Germain, coming off the bench to seal a 3-0 win over Paris FC and book her team’s place in the Coupe LFFP final on Saturday.
The Nigeria international’s decisive strike marked her first goal since returning from injury.
Rasheedat Ajibade Shines in Parisian Derby
The first half of the Paris derby was tightly contested, with chances at a premium. Paris FC nearly took the lead when Klaudia Jedlinska’s angled effort rattled the crossbar in the 10th minute, but PSG held firm.
It wasn’t until the second half that the home side turned the game decisively in their favor.
Romée Leuchter opened the scoring just two minutes after the break, and Merveille Kanjinga doubled the lead in the 60th minute.
A Return to Form for Ajibade
PSG maintained control, but it was Ajibade who delivered the final flourish.
Entering the match as a substitute, she calmly received the ball in space in the 89th minute and slotted a precise shot past goalkeeper Tara Elimbi Gilbert, confirming PSG’s commanding victory.
Ajibade’s goal was her second for PSG, her first since suffering an injury against Bayern Munich in the UEFA Women’s Champions League on November 20, 2025.
The Super Falcons star also has a prior goal in the competition, netting against Real Madrid.
