Wow. 14 is crazy. Plenty of time certainly. I hope a good European academy snaps her up and grooms her for a bit before moving her to the main team like Villarreal did with Chukwueze.

If Barcelona fit snatch her and Moshood b4 now, I for happy. They’re good enough to play for their Team B and Grow from there..

TheSuperNerd:
To be honest, God bless you Basco. Seeing her on the world stage made me recall what you said one time before the U20 WWC. That you suggest her being called up for the U20s. And to be honest, seeing how the U20 falconets lacked a proper Number 9 (Okwuchukwu tried but isn't a proper 9 like Chidi), I must say you were absolutely spot on!!! God Damn!!! Chidi is possibly the best No 9 prospect I have seen for a while now. The one to truly continue the No. 9 tradition left by Oparanozie, Akide, Olaitan Yusuf and co.

Sarah Michael nko? Ahbi she wasn’t 9 enough? Cause she was more like the one Oparanozie took the batton from even though they played together on few occasions in a 4-4-2 formation under Coach Ngozi Eucharia.

Chiamaka and Ajibade came through under danjuma tho..... danjuma really need to quit also

Came through which yeye Danjuma?

Chiamaka and Ajibade were already top pick from the U17 level just as we are talking about Chidi and Moshood right now and they came through Coach Bala Nkiyu

I don’t see anything Danjuma did there…! How many Nasarawa Amazon players can you say Danjuma has produced? That are currently Stars in the international scene after how many years, Apart from those that got signed into the team after showing potentials from other Clubs.

WarHammer2000:
Zambia no go kpai us with these their intersex men-women o. See as woman face strong pass my own🙄.

Abeg FIFA needs to come up with rules to curtail this trend or natural-born "complete" women would soon stand no chance in the women's game.

I Dey tell you, even in their U17 is still the same. Without these kind of players I don’t think Zambia stand any chance.!

daveP:
I won't be surprised if they stall this set. Cos these girls have what it takes to enter falcons XI than Sebastine and Ajakaye at this rate.


Animashaun looks like Rofiat a lil. I hope she improves her all round game.

Their Progress to the SuperFalcons will be better and more Smooth if the U20 team have a better Coach..

If it’s Danjuma forget it, he will definitely ruin things with is poor Coaching!

daveP:
Okay.

Noticed most post match news from the nwfl don't add the age of players mentioned on their blogs, news, pages. It's a solid norm. Lol.

Their age is there but not made public in most cases except you’re going for an international tournament at any of the National team level or going pro Abroad.

It's this time of the year again. 🤩

#CAFAwards2024. December 16. Marrakech, Morocco. Mark your calendars. 🗓️

COSAFA Women’s CUP

FT: Zambia 3-0 Angola

⚽Ochumba Oseke Lubanji 29'
⚽Lungowe Namasiku 46'
⚽Regina Chanda 72'

In picture is Fridah Mukoma ,without any doubt she is the next big thing for zambia. She was such a thorn in the flesh of Angola through out, and she gave two assists in today's game.

ladies and gentlemen another Zambian star is born.🙄🥹

isan:
Chidi is heir to that super falcons No9 position.......I hope coach madugu is watching chidi and moshood and shouldn't be saying they are too young

That girl na Natural born no.9

Like it shows in her game that’s she’s an original no.9, trained for it, Worked for it.

WarHammer2000:
Moshood could become an Arjen Robbenesque player if deployed to the RWF position and groomed there. She can cut in and hit those wicked left-footed cannons.

But since we have historically always lacked midfielders, I think it's better she is groomed into a no. 10 or 8 instead.

She's definitely the only confirmed Super Falcons material I have seen on the team.

With what have watched her play she will make a good RWF with AM as an alternate position for her…! The good thing is that she uses both feet’s effectively but her Left Foot is just too dope!!

I will say let them start giving her a gradual call up into the SuperFalcons.. If not for this U17 World Cup this kind of Friendly against Algeria she’s one of those we should be looking out for..!

daveP:
Please, who is that tall aunty on red braids? Defender or striker?

Florence Alexander who plays for Bayelsa Queens, Formerly of Rivers Angels.. One of the best Center Back in the League if not the best.

She recently won the Soccer Queen best Defender of the NWPL.

📍The 𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬 are here and it’s about to get down.

- 🇳🇬Nigeria vs 🇺🇸USA

- 🇰🇵Korea DPR vs 🇵🇱Poland

- 🇪🇸Spain vs 🇪🇨Ecuador

- 🇯🇵Japan vs 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿England

BascoVanVeli:
What's the reason for the change?

Haven’t heard of any yet!

I would have preferred they just played both games at the Remo stadium as their field is much bigger than the Mobolaji stadium🏟️

I will pick Linda & Omilana for grooming instead, Linda big and tall and she alongside Omilana have shown potentials. Linda physique is very intimidating btw the stick. This doesn’t take away their abilities of the Shot heavy goalkeepers called up but I’m still wondering what they say in these thick short ones🥹

AkinDS:
Short and chunky goalies all the time. Can't we find fitter options to groom?
This is ridiculous!

I’m really really tired of this heavy, booty goalies.. Their Physique doesn’t determine their Capabilities though but We need tall, agile and very fit goalkeepers not heavy duties.

The Goalies…

Anyway sha I never for one day Gbadu shot goalkeepers, If you’re shorter than Alaba Jonathan & Tochukwu Oluehi is a NO NO 4 me!

Meet the new faces of the Super Falcons. Fresh talents joining the squad as they gear up for their International Friendly against Algeria.

There has been a change of venue for the upcoming international friendly duel between Nigeria and Algeria.

The first leg encounter initially billed for Lagos at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena on Saturday, October 26th, will now take place at Remo Stars Sports Complex in Ikenne, Ogun state.

While the second leg meeting remain unchanged as the two sides will face off again on Tuesday, October 29th in Lagos; at Mobolaji Johnson Arena.

Aishat Animasahun showing her pace but to no better end product.!

Blessing Ifitezuo to me is the worst player on the Lineup, Her runs have been useless due to the fact that she will tend to pass very late, time to cut back or lay the ball for an on runners she won’t do that but she. She finally does, the Dominican Republic defense have adjusted..

She better improve as she grows or might affect her game in the future..

Okobi is hurt for getting dropped for the world cup ....every Nigerian deserved a fair opportunity to play for falcons

She’s acting as if she’s against the Foreign Born, which isn’t right at all.. Her words might even bring enemity btw the players.!

isan:
Okobi is hurt for getting dropped for the world cup ....every Nigerian deserved a fair opportunity to play for falcons

I’m not really happy with the way she’s talking since the World Cup dropping and all..

I hope this doesn’t speak against her Contribution as one of the best Midfielder to ever play for the SuperFalcons.. She should be fair with her judgement if she really want to speak..

BascoVanVeli:
Where is the Edo Queens midfield nah? That just ruined this list IMO

Edo queen captain Suliat Abideen, Emem Essien, Esther Inyang..! They picked their favorite that they want to market instead of the best in the League… 😢

Deltamani:
The truth is not even the Best NWFL players were invited, Just few I can lay eyes on..

Basco did you miss this?? When I said they didn’t even pick the best in the league, It seems you have been offline since.


Again am still asking Which rebuilding process? Because Coach Randy Waldrum didn’t leave the team in a Bad State all that was needed was to scout in one or two players to fill some spots instead they’re doing 1 step forward & 3 step backward

daveP:
Is Jiwuaku fit? They for just call her instead. I see Oyono i say make i ignore...

Yeah… Linda was Bayelsa Queens first choice at this just Concluded Betsy Pre Season tournament where they finished 3rd.

AkinDS:
Well, that's what happens when dumb people are put in charge of something this impactful.
Like you rightly pointed out, he could have invited the next tier of players (some of whom you named) with the intention of assessing their readiness to be a part of the 'A' Super Falcons. I mean, we recently discussed actively looking for a credible sub for Nnadozie. Wouldn't this have been an opportunity to get some of the young goalies in Europe?
Instead, he chose to invite 'C' and below players who have NO hope of making the 'A' or 'B' team. Just plain dumb!

The truth is not even the Best NWFL players were invited, Just few I can lay eyes on..

These are seasoned pro and regular SuperFalcons players , if he really wanted to widen the roster as said, he would have gone for those not regular with the Falcons in terms of game time..

Ghana WNT Coach Nora Häuptle made her way to France over the weekend to observe Mia Irene Gyau play in the French Arkema Premiere League game between Reims and Nante at the Stade de Reims.

Mia Irene Gyau was in full action for her side, Reims.

lovewins:
While I look forward to us facing a much better team to be absolutely certain, you've got to give credit where it is due.

Coach Bankole put together an exciting team, composed of players with a lot of promise. I remember I couldn't even sit up to finish any of the Super Falconets game as it was so boring and borderline annoying. This is a total departure from that.

Let’s be Sincere Bankole is a better Coach than Danjuma, we can see the style and exciting Play from the girls but the U20 was just too wack, He ruined the talents in that team.

I hope the Current Edo Queens Coach Moses Aduku takes over at the U20 level cause he’s pattern of play is better.
