I watched the full 90 minutes, and I think I saw what the coach was trying to achieve. I think Anam Imo will definitely improve. Uchendu will probably not make it to the world cup if she doesnt improve drastically. Ihezuo is a good squad player.
Thomas Dennerby is still to get the attacking groove on. He is focusing on a compact, disciplined build up, which eliminates player expression.

I think it was a good match, and the team did well. Central midfield is still a massive problem and Osas Igbinovia needs to come in. My biggest fear now is that the coach seems unwilling to try some obviously good players.
Having said that, if we play the way we did today, then we will certainly beat Romania.
Your prediction did come to pass, but I y think Romania is a top

Arna-Bjørnar FC of Norway have signed Nigerian Superfalcons Left Back

Norwegian Toppserien side Arna-Bjørnar Fotball have announced the capture of Nigeria international Ngozi Ebere.
The financial terms and duration of the contract signed by the defender have not been disclosed by Arna-Bjørnar.
The 27-year-old would have represented the Super Falcons at the four-nation tournament in China but had problems securing a visa.
Ebere was a key member of the Nigeria squad that won the 2018 Africa Women Cup of Nations and was also in the winning team of 2014 and 2016.
She began her career in Europe with Paris Saint-Germain and later represented Barcelona FA in Cyprus.
Ebere is in line to make her competitive debut for her new employer when they face Trondheims-ørn in the Toppserien on March 23.

This is very good. Again, this is what we get from hiring a respected European. The recommendations he will give regarding these players will be reassuring to most European clubs, especially the Nordic countries.
Ngozi Ebere is very good and I expect her to become even better.

Thank you sir. Romania is not a top footballing nation but they are ranked higher than Nigeria. This is because UEFA gets a massive advantage in FIFA rankings, especially in women football. I think realistically, Nigeria is in top 15 teams in the world.
As for the super falcons, I think they are improving every match, and they will be difficult to beat if they keep this tempo. The team is improving alot defensively. They still have a lot of work to do on crosses and set pieces, but the team is more compact.
Offensively, the team has to improve a lot, but I think the coach is approaching it right. He is looking for good attackers and judging them all.
Today, Alice Ogede played and I doubt she will make the final cut to France. Chinasa Uchendu is already down the pecking order.
Anam Imo however, has improved a lot and I am pleasantly surprised by her. It shows the coach was right in giving her plenty opportunity. Also Ajibade is improving too.

For the Cyprus cup, I expect us to also see a compact, boring team for at least the first 2 games as the coaches try to adapt. I think the future of the team is a 4-4-2 that will accomodate Ajibade and Okobi in the attacking midfield role, while also dropping one of Oshoala, Ordega or Oparanozie.

While we wait for the Cyprus women cup,Dennerby should hold a training camp for the home based players. . I believe we can get one or two decent additions to the team from there..
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by mostob(m): 8:50pm On Jan 20, 2019
we really need to stop playing Ebi and Ohale and find quality backup. Those two are quality already.

We really need back up for this two, although Josephine Chukwunonye is also a natural Center back... I think if Ugochi Emenayo 21yrs keep working hard she will be a good back up soon.

I guess she wore #19 jersey in China game. I wondered why the coach played her as defensive midfielder. She showed the skills of a modern soccer; very fluid, strong and fast with the ball.

She played as a Striker in both games... From the Left and as a Center forward..

I understand why you feel that way sir. We hardly attacked the Chinese. Though she was playing mostly around the midfield area but she is one of the 2 strikers we played in that match. Very hard working.

She has skills, power and speed. I wondered why she played deep in the midfield instead of up front.
