Amusan stormed to a time of 12.29 seconds, finishing behind Switzerland’s Ditaji Kambundji, who claimed gold with a new national record.

Her performance marked Nigeria’s first medal at the championship and reaffirmed her status as one of the most consistent hurdlers in global athletics.

The bronze medal went to Grace Stark of the United States, who clocked 12.34 seconds, while her compatriot Masai Russell narrowly missed the podium, placing fourth in 12.44 seconds.

Poland’s Pia Skrzyszowska and the Bahamas’ Devynne Charlton both recorded season’s bests of 12.49 to share fifth place.

Jamaica’s Danielle Williams crossed the line seventh in 12.53, with the Netherlands’ Nadine Visser finishing eighth in 12.56.

Amusan, who set the world record of 12.12 seconds in 2022, has dominated the hurdles scene for three years and remains Nigeria’s brightest star on the track.

Naija News had earlier reported that Amusan made her way into yet another global final after winning her semifinal heat in the women’s 100m hurdles at the 2025 World Athletics Championships in Tokyo.

Tobi Amusan clocked an impressive 12.36 seconds (-0.2) to secure first place, ahead of Nadine Visser of the Netherlands (12.45s) and Poland’s Pia Skrzyszowska (12.51s).

Super Eagles forward, Ademola Lookman, scored on his debut for Atlético Madrid as they thrashed Real Betis 5-0 in the quarter-final of the Copa del Rey on Thursday night.

Lookman sealed his move from Atalanta to the La Liga side early this week.

The forward scored the third goal from a counter-attacking move after David Hancko and Giuliano Simeone had put Diego Simeone’s side 2 goals up.

Antoine Griezmann and Thiago Almada completed the rout after the 28-year-old’s 37th-minute goal.

Atlético and Betis will face each other again on Sunday in LaLiga.

Sadiq sets unwanted record in Copa del Rey loss

Nigeria striker Umar Sadiq carved his name into Valencia’s history as the club stumbled to a 2-1 Copa del Rey defeat to Athletic Bilbao on Wednesday night, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.

On a night of high drama at the Mestalla, Sadiq rewrote the record books after scoring at both ends of the pitch – for Bilbao in the 26th minute and for Valencia 10 minutes later.

The Super Eagles striker became the first-ever Valencia player to score both for and against the club in a single Spanish competition match.

Sadiq is also the first La Liga player to score a goal and an own goal in a Copa del Rey match since Verza for Almeria against Getafe in January 2015.

The 27-year-old’s unusual record-setting evening began in unfortunate fashion when he attempted to deal with a dangerous free-kick into the penalty area. Under pressure, the striker could only glance the ball past his own goalkeeper, handing Athletic Bilbao an early advantage.

But Sadiq responded 10 minutes later, pouncing on a costly error from Bilbao goalkeeper Alex Padilla to roll the ball into an unguarded net and restore parity for Valencia.

However, Athletic Bilbao had the final say. Six minutes into added time, Ghana international Iñaki Williams broke Valencia hearts with a decisive strike, sealing a dramatic late victory and knocking the hosts out of the Copa del Rey.

Valencia head coach Carlos Corberán refused to apportion blame to Sadiq following the defeat.

“I didn’t see Sadiq’s gesture, but I understand he was eager to score, and an own goal is always painful,” Corberán said after the match.

“He’s contributed a lot of hard work, and no player wants to suffer an own goal.”

The equaliser marked Sadiq’s second Copa del Rey goal since returning to the club during the winter transfer window, following his earlier strike in the 2-0 win over Burgos CF.
