Paris 2024: God please forgive us - Nigerians beg as Tobi Amusan crashes out of Olympics

Nigerians have called on God to forgive them after World record holder, Tobi Amusan failed to make the final of the women's 100m hurdles at the Olympics.

Pulse Sports reported that Tobi Amusan suffered a shock exit from the Paris 2024 Olympics.

It was the first time in eight years that 27-year-old Tobi Amusan has failed to make the final of the 100m hurdles at the Olympics.

The 100m hurdles world record holder failed to even reach the final after finishing third in her semi-final heat with a time of 12.55 seconds.

The Ogun-state-born Nigerian superstar finished a lowly ninth overall, dashing the dreams of an entire nation that had been counting on her to deliver gold.

Nigeria's flagbearer Amusan, who set the world record of 12.12 seconds at the 2022 World Championships, could not replicate that blistering form on the biggest stage.

The devastating setback has made Nigerians return to God, seeking forgiveness after the failure of the team at the Olympics. See some reactions from social media;

With Amusan crashing out of the Olympics, Nigeria might not win any medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics which ends on Sunday, August 11th.
