Super Falcons through coach Randy Waldrum queried the NFF over FIFA's World Cup grant amidst poor World Cup preparation and could go on strike in Australia.

Nigeria’s Women's national football team the Super Falcons are set for more showdown with the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF ahead of the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup.

The Super Falcons are reportedly planning to go on strike by boycotting their first game of the World Cup in response to their fight with the NFF over money issues.

Falcons, who are in Group B with co-hosts Australia, Canada and Ireland, have had a turbulent build-up to the global showpiece slated for later this month.

Super Falcons plan to boycott opener

Following an ongoing dispute over match bonuses between the coach Randy Waldrum and his employers, the NFF, the team is set to take drastic measures to make their voice heard according to a report by the Mirror.

As reported by Pulse Sports Nigeria, the NFF had been queried by Super Falcons coach, Waldrum, who is furious with the poor preparation his team has had ahead of the World Cup.

The Super Falcons had a two-week camp cancelled while the players have not been properly compensated despite FIFA making money available.

Waldrum and his Falcons are expected to battle Olympic champions Canada in their World Cup opener on July 21.

However, that game is now under threat per the report as the Super Falcons are planning to boycott the encounter except the current financial issues bedevilling the team are resolved.

Should the Falcons push ahead with this plan, this will be the second time under Waldrum that the team would embark on strike action.

Super Falcons players failed to turn up for training ahead of their bronze medal clash against Zambia at the Women's Africa Cup of Nations also due to financial issues.

Nigeria went on to lose that encounter, with confirmation from coach Waldrum during his recent war of words that the players are yet to receive their allowances from the competition.
