Some football enthusiasts in Aba have expressed confidence in the Super Falcons to win their 10th title at the upcoming 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.
The fans, who spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria on Tuesday, said that the Falcons have all it takes to rule Africa for the 10th time.
NAN reports that the team in their pre-friendly matches played out 0-0 against Portugal and defeated Ghana 3-1 in their final preparation matches.
Nneka Innocent said the Super Falcons, with determination and unity, will probably win the trophy in Morocco with ease.
She said that the team handled by Coach Justin Madugu showed the quality they were made of in their friendly matches against Portugal and Ghana.
“We have young players who are hungry for glory, and my only advice is for the players to put the friendly match results aside and pay attention to the WAFCON matches,” Innocent said.
Ndudim Isaac, on his part, said the Falcons have been regular at the tournament and won trophies, and only needed to maintain their supremacy over other African countries.
“For the Super Falcons to beat one of the best teams in Africa, Ghana by 3-1, they will top their group and defeat other teams to get to the final,” Isaac said.
Ugochukwu Obasi, who said the Super Falcons are the favourite to win the trophy, urged the team to be focused throughout the tournament.
Obasi urged the players to treat all the teams equally, starting from the first match to the final and ensure they win the trophy come July 26.
NAN reports that Nigeria will face Tunisia in their first group B match of the championship and also battle Botswana and Algeria for a place in the next round of the competition.
