Hopefully, Onyenezide and Payne would click in the midfield in the near future
At least Payne would focus less on creativity once any baller comes to take that spot.

Sad we had to go out the way we did, however, it was a delight to watch how disciplined the super falcons has become, in my opinion, if the NFF will retain Waldrum, they should retain every member of the team, incudling the man, that that NFF sent in to deputize Waldrum after they did not allow that woman to follow him to the world cup. @Deltamani..do you know the name of that man, he seems to be working some magic behind the scene to.


Terry Eguaoje Joined the team since Revelation Cup in Mexico..

From what I’ve gathered about him, he is primarily an assistant coach with the Super Eagles. The NFF only seconded him to the Super Falcons following Lauren Gregg’s departure

Not at all, He has been in the team since the Revelation Cup and have stayed till date..

Not sure when he joined, but I know he also worked with the Super Eagles staff. Funny thing is he's also based in Pittsburgh like Randy.

He isn't exactly a coach sha, he's more like a match analyst.

We still need an assistant coach, especially that can help Randy with the attacking side.

His success won't necessarily translate with the men. There's one reason Randy did well with the ladies; they believe in him. He won't have the same buy-in with the guys.

Those guys need someone they can play for. It's why Stephen Keshi of blessed memory succeeded a bit.

She shouldn't be playing in this tournament again. She also needs to find Alozie and apologies to her privately, then do a public apology too.

That was gutter behaviour

I just saw a tweet too. The guy explain with images of how England in Men and Women's get away with such kind of tackles since 2002 World cup for Men. Rooney and co. I guess Var would have been brutal back in those times if it existed. England Specifically. Some English folks are tweeting its a mistake. See blasting 😂😂
Those studs are deep o. You kon stamp am like carpet. They better stop overlooking such so it will get eliminated from women's football asap. Maany still play like they cab get away with stuff. Once the contrary is established-Then everyone plays fair

So we can say the Men already had such in Gernot Rohr, but mediocrity caught up and he got sacked.


Now what if that repeats with Randy? 😂

As only 2 African teams would be present at the Olympics, I would tip Nigeria and South Africa to pick the slots (if both teams are are further kept apart in the African qualifiers)…

Also, whoever coaches the team at the Olympics (if we qualify) would have a big selection headache cos each country is limited to 18-player squads.

Even if you take out Ebi, Oparanozie, Oluehi, Balogun and Ordega, 😁 there is still the headache of trying to fit in the likes of Nicole Payne, Babajide, Ijeh, Onyenezide, into the squad without dropping others.

Eguaoje previously served as the Assistant Coach of the Nigerian men’s national team during the 2022 World Cup qualifiers against Ghana (home and away) and the 2022 African Nations Cup (AFCON)…

South Africa are along our path.

We will facing Ethiopia on October. Then we'll face the winner between Cameroon and Uganda, then we potentially face South Africa in the final round.

It has been analyzed that your best PK taker should always be the first taker to set the tone and put pressure of "catching up" on the opposition....Your Second best PK taker should go always go 3rd...

Anyway the first team taking penalty for the most part always wins ( As the 2nd team taking penalties will always play catch up ), That was why FIFA introduced the ABBA Pk system some 6 years back, but they have somehow scrapped it.

...As for Oshoala, it's always a mystery why she plays like an amateur or someone who's never kicked a ball in her life whenever she wears the "Green & White"...For someone who is said to be "Africa's Best" and contending to be recognized as one of the best Strikers in the world and best Player in the world ( Balon d'or Nomination ) she never takes charge to drag her team to fight and across the finish line, she never plays through her skin, stay on the grind like other greats do.

I mean she only registered 2 shots on target throughout this tournament ( 4 games: one was a free net against Australia which resulted in a goal and he other was a tame shot at 116 min against England )....That's very appalling for any 1st choice striker and even more appalling for someone touted as one for the best in the world.

This wouldn't be much of an issue anyway, as the Olympics is played during start of preseason and clubs aren't obligated to release their players as that competition doesn't fall under the purview of FIFA.


PS: Didn't Evelyn accept a recent call-up to the Swedish team?

The women’s football event at the Olympics is actually on FIFA’s calendar, so clubs are definitely obligated to release players for the tournament

Evelyn currently features for the Swedish u23 team. She was invited to ap with the Senior team just like she did with Nigeria but hasn't featured for them.

Not sure she's very fast, but she one clinical striker.

Again, you'll only be surprised about Oshoala if you don't watch her at Barcelona. At some point, I even concluded that being a Barcelona hasn't helped her to become a better player even though she's won so many laurels with them. At Barca, she's required for the bear minimum. All she does is position in the box, and score. She's sometimes required to make runs but that's very rare.

She misses so many chances. She may have to get 10 chances to score 1. Our role every week is to defend her on their YouTube page from attacks by some racist Barcelona fan. (lol) even though there's truth to some of the things they say sometimes.

I still think she has a lot to offer the team, she must needs to take personal responsibility. Get a personal trainer that will help you improve your game. He contract ends with Barcelona in 2024, and there's pressure from some fans not to renew her contract and go instead for a better striker. If her contract isn't renewed and she gets to join another team, her inadequacies will become more apparent.

Really hoping she works on herself.

Oh really? I didn't know that...or I must have missed it. But why isn't the men's event overseen by FIFA as well? It just makes half a sense to me....
Or could it be, because the women club teams were't "full time pros" ( At least not until some 5 years ago) FIFA saw it fit to take charge?

I think the rationale may be that the women’s game (especially at club level) has significantly less air time than their male Counterparts, hence putting the tournament on FIFA’s calendar would be a way to give the women increased global visibility
