Thought that had been concluded?
Anyhow, there are quite a few countries that wouldn't be playing in the Olympics - Scotland, Ireland and Wales have a decent team. Same with Switzerland, Germany and Spain. Denmark, Norway and Finland are also available.

NFF still trying as much as possible to Secure an international Friendly game for the Superfalcon this July...

Another option is Christy Ucheibe of SL Benfica of Portugal.
She can play as a DM/CM.
Hopefully, she has resolved her passport issues which prevented her from attending the Summer Series, as well as the Turkish Invitational.

Na true sha, but tge technical aspect would probably see scorelines like the one Onome Ebi's Minsk Did weeks back.

Make we target top 10teams for now. For Confidence purposes. Its needed.

FIFA ranking? I don't think that should be a priority now. Anyway, an African team and maybe an American or European team should be good. Why I am hammering on African team is because of the forthcoming AWCON

Onome scoring hat trick . Well, it might turn out like that . I just think the girls especially should get familiar with what is forthcoming tasks especially the qualifiers and AWCON

We will play african team in the Aisha cup and qualifier for Awcon , a good place in FIFA ranking will land us in good group in the world cup

Friday, Jul 2, 2021,

The Houston Dash signed forward Michelle Alozie as a National Replacement Team Player, the Club announced today. Alozie will join the Dash through the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.

The American-born Nigerian footballer came to Houston for the 2021 preseason and signed a National Team Replacement Player contract for two weeks on April 5 after spending a season with BIIK Kazygurt, the 13-time national champion of Kazakhstan. Alozie spent three months there before returning to the U.S. due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In her stellar collegiate career, the Apple Valley, Calif. native spent three years at Yale scoring 19 goals and tallying 13 assists, earning Ivy League Co-Offensive Player of the Year honors, as well as first-team All-Conference recognition. As a graduate student, Alozie joined the University of Tennessee for her last season, finishing with three goals in 17 appearances for the Lady Vols.

Most recently, Alozie was called into the Nigerian Women’s National Team for the 2021 WNT Summer Series and made her international debut at BBVA Stadium on June 10 against Jamaica. Alozie scored her first goal for the Super Falcons on June 13 against Portugal in Houston.

Alozie will be available for tonight’s match against OL Reign at 7:30 p.m. CT at BBVA Stadium.

As it stands Eskilstuna United Midfielder Halimatu Ayinde, who suffered a severe ACL and meniscus injury will take a long time rehabilitation.

50% chance of missing 2022 AWCON Tournament (July 2-23)..

Oshoala the football goddess

Can we say she's among the top ten players in the world?

JohnBullMySon:

Yes. If she didn't get injured she would have finished the season way stronger than she did. Look at how she handled man city in the first leg. A healthy Oshoala is definitely a top 10 player.

Well Ukraine is not a top destination especially for women but it might be a good place to start

But for injury, she would have finished the season stronger- this, I totally agree! as for the part that she's among the world's top ten, I disagree. Let's not deceive ourselves here, there are several players ahead of her at the moment. Don't you think there's a concrete reason as to why she's never a starter at her club? The reason is not far fetched- Apart from pace, which she's always possessed, Oshoala has not developed other aspects of her game. This same speed is the same reason she scores a lot of goals for her club- plus being surrounded by world class players who create multiple chances, most of which she wastes.

For her to assume that status, she has to work seriously on her finishing, also develop other aspects of her game.

By Niyi Busari

Super Falcons of Nigeria will have a 10-day camping in Austria ahead of the Aisha Buhari Invitational Tournament, BSNSports.com.ng can report.

The ten-day camping according to Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) president, Amaju Pinnick will enhance the chances of winning the tournament adding that the African champions will play more friendly games in the US to be top form ahead of their African Nations Cup qualifier encounter against Ghana .

He said, “The Super Falcons will be camping in Austria for 10 days, and return to partake in the Aisha Buhari Invitational Tournament. This is because continuity speaks volume.

He added, “They will return back to the US to play more friendly matches. Part of our clear mandate is to give the National team quality friendlies and we will not stop doing so.”

The Aisha Buhari Invitational Tournament is scheduled to hold in Lagos in September with Ghana, Cameroun, Mali, South Africa, Morocco, and Nigeria already confirmed for the competition.

The other girl is the Spanish number one so she definitely has to get her's but we all saw what Oshoala did in the Champions League quarterfinals. When Oshoala is healthy there is no woman in football faster and stronger than her. Her physical traits alone put her in a league of her own. Did you watch Meagan Rapinoe and say she was even on Oshoala's level? This is someone FIFA claim to be the best on Earth and we all saw it isn't close.

Please don't call Megan Rapinoe on this issue at all, She's definitely ahead of Asisat Oshoala as far as Women Football is concerned, She's 36yrs While Asisat Oshoala is just 26yrs... By the way what Megan Rapinoe brings to her team is very much different at 36yrs she's still the best Ball Crosser in the World and a setpiece specialist, she can Split your Defence with her dangerous deliveries. Just that Age has caught up with her...

What did she bring against Nigeria She was locked down by a striker moonlighting as a fullback. Did she or did she not win world best a year ago? I don't care a thing about age. After all our best defender is 38. Toe to toe blow for blow. Oshoala is better than Rapinoe. Rapinoe would barely win nations cup if she were Nigerian while Oshoala would be a contender for the greatest female athlete of all time if she were American.
