A claim circulating online that Super Falcons goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie helped Brighton & Hove Albion beat Arsenal in the Women's FA Cup quarter-finals is factually incorrect. Web searches confirm that the Nigerian international plays for Paris FC in the French Division 1 FΓ©minine and was not involved in any FA Cup match for Brighton.

The actual Women's FA Cup quarter-final between Brighton and Arsenal took place on March 16, 2025. Brighton won the match 1-0, with the goal scored by Elisabeth Terland. Brighton's goalkeeper in that victory was Sophie Baggaley.

Chiamaka Nnadozie is a notable goalkeeper for the Nigerian national team and Paris FC, but she has never been a Brighton player. The source article appears to have conflated facts. Brighton did advance to the semi-finals of the 2024-25 Women's FA Cup, where they were eventually defeated by Manchester United.
