Why is Nigeria always in the toughest group in these female world cups? This Nigeria team is the type that if allowed a good run become difficult to beat. So best way to get rid of them is give them no chance at the outset. But, of course, the process of matching the teams is by luck...isn't it wink never trust the third-world trust the first-world, they are godly honest init? wink



The other day, Ken Livingston on LBC quipped that Western Nations solved corruption by legitimizing it. Genius.

Lol
I'm beginning to suspect the entire draw process too. How could Cameroon be placed in a fairly easy group, while the African champions are placed in a group where their 3 opponents are ranked amongst the top 10 in the world?

Anyway, the Super Falcons can look to the Costa Rican men's team for inspiration. That team was never given any hope to advance to the knockout round of the 2014 World Cup from a group also comprising England, Italy and Uruguay. But Costa Rica shocked the world by not only advancing from the group but also winning it!

So, there is some motivation for the SF in that story.

Legendary striker Perpetua Nkwocha is the oldest Super Falcons player to feature at the Fifa World Cup at 35 and six months in Nigeria’s 1-0 defeat of Canada on July 5, 2011 at the Rudolf-Harbig-Stadion, Dresden. She marked this feat by scoring the Falcons’ lone goal in the 84th minute.

- Patience Avre is the youngest Nigerian player to score at the Fifa Women's World Cup at the age of 18 years and 10 months. She achieved this feat in 1995 at the Olympia Stadion, Helsingborg where the Super Falcons held Canda to a 3-3 draw. Avre’s 60th minute strike was Nigeria’s second goal of the game.

- Faith Ikidi is the youngest player to have represented Nigeria at 15 years and seven months. She achieved this at USA 2003

- 65,080- This is the record number of spectators to watch a Falcons game in the World Cup. This was set on June 24, 1999 in Nigeria's 7-1 loss to USA in a group game at the Soldier Field, Chicago.

Nigeria hopes to shock the world

Overview: Nigeria arguably is the best team in Africa, coming off its ninth African Championship and making all seven World Cups. The Super Falcons have had success playing an all-out attacking style and score a lot of goals. It's a bleak outlook in Group D, but this team is confident, and anything is possible if Nigeria can win one of its early games against Sweden or Australia.

Key Players

Desire Oparanozie: Oparanozie might be only 20, but she's one of Nigeria's top scorers. This will be her second World Cup, and she also played in the 2010 and '12 U-20 women's World Cups, plus the '08 U-17 tournament, so she's not lacking experience.

Asisat Oshoala: This will be Oshoala's first World Cup, but she's not low on experience either. She has played in the past U-20 World Cups and won the Golden Ball and Golden Boot Award last summer. The striker, who plays club for Liverpool Ladies, was the first African player to join the FA Women's Super League.

About the team

Coach: Edwin Okon, who was appointed the coach of Nigeria after leading the U-20 team to a fourth-place finish at the 2012 World Cup in Japan. This team conceded only one goal during 10 qualifying matches, and he publicly has stated that opponents in Group D should worry about his squad. In an interview after the groups were released, Okon said his team is strong, and his players have experience that could allow Nigeria to "shock the world."

How they qualified: Winning the African Women's Championship.

Number of appearances: 7.

Best result: In 1999, they lost to Brazil in the quarterfinals.

FIFA world ranking: No. 33.

Fast fact: Nigeria is the only African team that has played in every Women's World Cup since it began in 1991.
