A video of a woman and a man slugging it out at a table tennis game has stirred massive reactions online.
In the clip, the woman handled the bat as a professional as she served the ball at a great speed.
Despite the woman wearing a loose-fitting Ankara gown and without footwear, her opponent struggled hard to return her service.
There were a few people in the background who keenly watched how the two players sparred with each other.
While the woman's identity could not be verified at the time of writing this report because of the video's low visual quality, some tweeps said that she is Faithima Bello, a Nigerian professional tennis player.

The video has been watched thousands of times with massive engagements. Legit.ng compiled some of the reactions below:

"Abeg make naija take this woman go Olympics."
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that a talented Nigerian lady, Fakiyesi Abisola Anthonia, from Ekiti state, showed off her football-playing skill in a viral video.
Posting the video on Friday, March 5, the lady said she is "an average girl from the average streets with an empty pocket and a bag of dreams."
Anthonia, therefore, asked people to help her retweet her video so that it can go viral and gain wide attention from social media users.
