isan:
In a tough game like this can't Regina otu and ucheibe play together ? Sitting deep and giving Ajibade more freedom to go forward

BascoVanVeli:
So far so good I must say we showed massive improvement from the first match. We are actually man marking corners, wonders shall never end.

Isn't going to be difficult for the Coaches to keep out the Luxury of attacking Options like Uchenna Kanu, Fransisca Ordega, Esther Okoronkwo, Desire Oparanozie on the bench??

donstan18:
TAA Na defensive liability.

popizaino:
Imagine what a Chelsea player will do with the ball if he was in cancelo's position ?


Turn back and look for Silva.

Schemerkhiz:
Should we adopt the 3 Women Center Back for the AWCON??


Osinachi Ohale --- Onome Ebi --- Ashleigh Plumptre

Akudo Ogbonna to replace any of them if the need arises...

andrewbaba44:
He deserves it abeg

Imagine Ekuke players are manure are earning better than salah

Peter Drury is a poet.

Bascovanveli3:
U are absolutely right. Everyone was ball watching instead of attacking the ball.

Bascovanveli3:
If u can play u can play. Would she be the first player to play for the senior team at a young age? Oshoala, Ordega and Oparanozie all did it.

Fweshest3:
When is our next match pls?

daveP:
The Cbs also need know how to play extra midfield when we are with the ball. Ajibade can give back passes if nothing is upfront instead of hanging. Ebi and Plumtre therefore need to be like some pivot of distribution,that way Ajibade is free to go further and it will be easy to regain possesion. By now, this Giant of Wafcon should be the top team when it comes to dominating possesion. We should get a female pep. Lol.

I hate seeing that zonal marking. It irks me. They all looking confused and transfixed as the ball moves past them.

daveP:
From this Canada match, the ladies need to be put through rigorous setpieces training. Everyone should know where to be and who to mark. I hate that they're like 7in the box and two shirts come between them to cause terror and they're all taken unawares. Whoever played 3 needs to be talked to. They exploited that part well. And setpieces when attacking too. This has never been addressed, just like the same for the men's team. Is this a curse?


Lovely chances from Ajibade and Payne. If Ebi has forgotten he marking skills she should be spoken too. We don't need anyone distracted or taken unawares at the WWC.

Nnadozie to me is ready for anything right now and im happy about that. But we should also expect Oluehi to be ready as well. I don't know how much their passing Accuracy is, but it better be commendable.


And addressing this fatigue moments, the best way out of it is ball possession. Less running and more passing. It will save their strength. I hate that they zap out while the opponent is energetic and still hungry for pounds pf flesh and they just stroll like they don't care anymore. That's why i want younger ones in the middle, not senior mamas. Sincerely. An 18yr old will just flash past them like flash and they can't even do nothing.


Any team preparing against Falcons will use this to beat us anyday.

What's our gameplan for getting behind defences? I saw none of that vs Canada? We can't be relying on individual brilliance like in past years. Someone will say its just a friendly but we should be doing and showing readiness by now.

Khadijah Okunnu-Lamidi, presidential aspirant, says she believes in the Social Democratic Party (SDP) because it is a party that aligns with her vision for Nigeria.

Okunnu-Lamidi said this on Thursday while announcing her decision to join the SDP.

“Nigeria needs a new set of heroes, heroes who do not need anything dangerous than to perform their civic responsibility and would not for N1 or N1 billion trade for the good of our people,” Okunnu-Lamidi said.

“The party is open to the youth, and women and is democratic. It is where the maligned, disenfranchised can find their voice.

“We are here today to say we still believe in the promise of Nigeria. This is why an ordinary Nigerian woman and a true believer in our youths publicly takes a big step politically to officially announce my membership of the SDP.

“Let it be said that we are the party that guarantees education, and affordable health care for all Nigerians; a party that conducts a smart policy that will battle the forces of terrorism and fundamentalism wherever they may exist. It is a party that the youth will participate in the liberation of Nigeria and I will be one of them.

“I joined the SDP because it is credible and promised to work with me and aligns with my vision. I believe I would run the good race to victory and if the primary is not won, there would be no national election.”

On his part, Supo Shonibare, the SDP national chairman, said the party is pleased to welcome Okunnu-Lamidi.

He added that the processes for party’s congress and primaries would be announced next week.
