Nine-time African champions the Super Falcons' camp for the must-win African final qualifying fixture for this year's Women's Olympic Football Tournament against the Bayana Bayana of South Africa opened yesterday in Abuja.
Nine-time African champions the Super Falcons' camp for the must-win African final qualifying fixture for this year's Women's Olympic Football Tournament against the Bayana Bayana of South Africa opened yesterday in Abuja.
Young defender Shukurat Oladipo, veteran goalkeeper Tochukwu Oluehi, Japan-based Chidinma Okeke and Spain-based forward Gift Monday are expected in camp today. However, the Super Falcons still call the shots at that level though, with nine of 12 titles contested so far, and with a squad brimming with youth and experience, and the bounce of having been Africa's best performer at the last World Cup finals - unbeaten in regulation time until their exit via penalty shootout defeat to England.
