Spanish Primera Iberdola outfit Real Betis has completed the signings of Nigerian striking duo of Rinsola Babajide and Roosa Ariyo from English side Brighton and Spanish rivals Tenerife on permanent deals.

Babajide, who was on loan at Brighton sealed her switch to the Spanish outfit following the mutual termination of her contract with parent club Liverpool, where she has been since 2018, scoring 21 goals in 58 appearances.

Schemerkhiz:


We don't need Rinsola Babajide for anything, she should face her England...
I personally nor wan see her play for us sef... She should continue to fight for a Spot in the English Team...

FT Cameroon 0 Nigeria 0

. When is the return leg?

solonnachi:


Please how did the Falconets perform?

Can we really beat Cameroon in the reverse leg in Lagos with this result? Any score draw could knock us out ooo

If we beat Cameroon, we would face either Senegal or Morocco. They are not push overs ooo. African female football has grown ooo. No more minnows anymore. Senegal are physically built while Morocco are technically good. This is getting tighter for Falconets especially with this 0-0 draw with Cameroon.

Zogg got small frame for a defender. Will she be able to cope with our African sisters during AWCON? I don't think so

Schemerkhiz:
Superfalcons Defender Onyinyechi Zogg join former German Champions FFC Turbine Portdam....

Schemerkhiz:




Onyinyechi Zogg isn't that small as a Defender, She's strong and versatile which is an advantage for her, but can't really tell about her strength in terms of Africa football which comes with is own Physicality.

Her move to Germany will definitely add up to Physicality considering how strong and physical the Frauen Bundesliga is..

AkinDS:
Not sure how you came to this conclusion, but Zogg is listed as 5'8" / 5'9" by some sites.
That is pretty tall for a woman playing football.

And from what I saw of her in the Summer Series, don't let her looks fool you. She is as rugged as they come and will have zero problems fitting into the African game.

AWCON Qualifiers: 35 Falcons to resume camp ahead of Côte d’Ivoire clash

Head coach of the Nigeria senior women’s national team, Randy Waldrum has invited a total of 35 players to the camp of the Super Falcons ahead of next month’s final qualifying fixture for the 12th Africa Women Cup of Nations (AWCON), against Côte d’Ivoire.

The Super Falcons and the Lady Elephants of Côte d’Ivoire will square up at the MKO Abiola National Stadium, Abuja on Friday, 18th February with the return leg at the Stade Robert Champroux in Abidjan on Wednesday, 23rd February for a slot at AWCON 2022 hosted by Morocco in July.

It would be the first time in decades the team would be playing in the newly renovated Moshood Abiola National Stadium, after years of abandonment.

The nine-time African Champions will do all it takes to avoid a repeat of their 2020 Olympic games qualifier tie against their Ivorian counterparts, as they were eliminated via the away goal rule after playing 0-0 in Abidjan and 1-1 at home in Lagos.

To reach this penultimate round, Super Falcons defeated Ghana Black Queens 2-1 on aggregate while Ivory Coast demolished their Niger counterparts 20-0 on aggregate.

All invited players are expected to arrive Abuja on Tuesday, 1st February.

Oops ..I didn't take covid into consideration.
Was expecting the coach to have known his best legs by now. All the qualifiers and friendly matches should be for team bonding and understanding.
Anyway, I hope he knows what he is doing sha
