This Botswana go collect

Facts about Botswana


Appearance: Debutants
Best finish: n/a
Coach: Gaoletlhoo Nkutlwisang
Captain: Bonang Otlhagile
Fifa ranking: 152
Nickname: The Mares




Gearing up as first-timers, having qualified for the finals after six consecutive failures, Botswana are hoping to use women's football as a springboard to the World Cup.

They commenced their 2022 campaign by defeating Angola (7-1 agg) before impressively ushering out Zimbabwe on away goals, after a fine attacking display had seen them draw 3-3 over the two legs with their COSAFA rivals.

Taking to the field at WAFCON will be a triumph for coach Gaoletlhoo Nkutlwisang, who took over in 2008 and has had an evolving influence ever since.

After leading the Mares to a first COSAFA Women's Cup final in 2020, Nkutlwisang is eager to make an impression on her historic debut, despite being pitched against favourites Nigeria and South Africa.

The former Double Action captain will hinge her hopes on young midfielder Lesego Radiakanyo, who scored four goals during the qualifiers, US-based striker Thuto Ramafifi, nicknamed 'Queen of Goals', and Refilwe Tholakele, who contributed three goals in four matches.

Nigeria


Appearance: 12th
Best finish: Winners (1998, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2010, 2014, 2016, 2018)
Coach: Randy Waldrum
Captain: Onome Ebi
Fifa ranking: 39
Nickname: Super Falcons




There is really just one team to beat at WAFCON, and with the absence of Equatorial Guinea, the other only nation to have won the title, will Nigeria be on course for a record-extending tenth crown?

The Equatoguineans denied the West Africans in both 2008 and 2012, but the reigning champions, who won the first five WAFCONs, are now eyeing a fourth straight title.


Four-time - and reigning - African Women's Footballer of the Year Asisat Oshoala recently won Spain's Pichichi award after 20 league goals for Barcelona and will lead the way alongside veteran defender and captain Onome Ebi, now 38, while familiar names such as Francisca Ordega bolster the squad.

But coach Randy Waldrum, in charge of Africa's top-ranked side since 2020, has 13 tournament debutants in his squad, with the free-scoring Uchenna Kanu, Poland-based Macleans Chinonyerem, Gotham's Ifeoma Onumonu and Atletico Madrid's Rasheedat Ajibade among those to watch.

The American tactician oversaw a 2-0 loss and 2-2 draw against reigning Olympic champions Canada in friendlies back in April.

The Nigerians ensured qualification by seeing off the teams ranked fourth and fifth in Africa, earning a nervy 2-1 aggregate win over Ghana - after overturning a first-ever qualifying loss in the first leg - before defeating Ivory Coast (3-0 agg).

Fifa Rankings in Africa: #1 vs #29

Do u notice these things in yesterday matches»
Falcons used the height privilege against SA to stop crosses and the SA bayana bayana were energetic;i noticed their starting duo: keeper and one light skin fair robust defender with something like brown white hair were benched for the match from the begining still they won.Burundi girls tried yesterday but couldn't possess the ball or stop the ball well as an individual player which contributed to the goals in which yoruba call "sopa" or "lago".The falcons only used experienced yesterday they couldn't really make some shots on target when close to the goal instead they pass to the available player inside the box.A falcon midfieder with jersey no 20(with her hair dangling downwards) was shooting wide from the wing outside the box like 20 yards away.

Get a life

2019 Afcon we lost our ist game against south Africa
In the final we met south Africa and neat them.

I Will not again follow the masses saying this coach should be sack I join my fellow Africans to pressurized Amaju to sack rohr and canvass for a local coach and we out of the world cup today.
Leave this coach to do is job weda he wins the cup or not as long as he qualify us for the FIFA women world cup left allow him to take us there.
No Nigerian coaches has qualified us for vaf champions league group stages for the past 5 years. Finidi George didn't felt too big to coach in the NPFL he kept himself busy and the NFF has to appoint a serious minded person.
What stopping Emmanuel amuieke from taking a club in the NPFL? I will pick finidi over a man who sit at home and wait for super eagles job.

Our next Local coach must be a manager that is coaching at the NpfL not someone sitting at home. Nigerians will not take it

BREAKING: LABOUR PARTY HAVE ANNOUNCED A SUBSTANTIVE VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE DR. AHMED.

FORMER HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES MEMBER AND SENATOR. HE DEFEATED FORMER GOVERNOR MARKAFI.

PO IS A GOAL

Any scoreline less than 6 - 0 is unacceptable by me and every sensible football lovers.

Nice fixtures

Tinubu is a drug barron

We reject him in totality

Hmmm

Go for Goal, Goal Super Falcon!

Win or draw

This match will be the replay of Nigeria 10 : 0
Sao Tome and Principe...mark my words.
