Oshoala and Kundananji are battling it out for goals in Europe and the UWCL this season ⚽️

Eagles Tracker Interview With Esther Ijeoma Okoronkwo …

Coming Back from her 2nd ACL and all that, She’s a Strong Girl for Sure!💯


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDOSD8gRWc8?si=na9uwMvEFyzduTIe
From the interview she clearly stated that her Favorite position is the no.9 that she doesn’t really like playing from the Flank but do try her best when she’s given the opportunity to Play from the flank.!

She also talked about her lack of much playing time at the World Cup was because of her ACL injury that she was still on recovery and wasn’t really💯fit and the Coaches were been very careful with her… 2nd ACL for that Matter..!

Her words about Regina Otu was spot on, She’s really one of those Combative Midfielder that we have but at some point lost her form. I just hope she Plays her way back to form as she’s really a good Midfielder just like Christy Ucheibe who can cover a lot of ground..!

🚨South African star Hildah Magaia has been signed up by Mexican side Mazatlan Futbol Club from Korean outfit Sejong Sportstoto WFC.

She joins her international teammates Thembi Kgatlana and Jermaine Seoposenwe in the Mexican league.

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 10:40pm On Jan 02, 2024
So pretty much their 3 best players are in the Mexican League.

Yeah yeah and they’re all Strikers…

To me Hilda is arguably one of their deadly Striker, she’s a born Goal poacher even she’s Lacking the pace and Flairs of Thembi.. Seoposinwe also bring in some Pace and Physicality upfront.. 2024 WAFCON will be war.
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Deltamani: 10:49pm On Jan 02, 2024
SuperFalcons Coach really need to give us a good front 3, just as we have some time ago..

Stella Mbachu
Perpetua Nkwocha
Cynthia Uwak…

Then a Mix of Perpetual Nkwocha, Ebere Orji, Stella Mbachu, Desire Oparanozie, Sarah Michael..

Desire Oparanozie
Asisat Oshoala
Fransisca Ordega

Right now it’s more like
Uchenna Kanu
Rasheedat Ajibade
Asisat Oshoala/Ifeoma Onumonu
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Deltamani: 11:00pm On Jan 02, 2024
One of my Favorites SuperFalcons Starting 11…

This was 2011 Against Germany @ the FIFA Women’s World Cup in Germany.. Coach Uche Ngozi Eucharia played 4-4-2 with Sarah Michael and Desire Oparanozie upfront.. Ebere Orji on the Left Flank, Stella Mbachu on the Right Flank.. Perpetua Nkwocha and Rita Chikwelu in Central Midfield role..

Ohale and Ebi Pairing up at CB
Helen Ukaonu our Right Footed Left Back
Faith Ikidi as Right Back

That game was full of a lot of tense, physicality, pace and some individual brilliance.. 🇩🇪 were lucky to run out with 1nil Victory.. Perpetua got a Strong kick on her knee but still played on, then Rita Chikwelu gave a kick to one of the German Lady more like a Pay Back thuo, Thank Goodness no VAR then🤗



Birgit Prinz, Behringer and the rest were all Marked out.

If i dey look this squad i go dey shame for the present crops of players. If this set catch those set of Southy or these small teams wey dey flex muscle with current crops of Falcons players. Minimum is 6-0, you no come good st all, you go collect reach 10 with Nkwocha scoring 6

What would be your picks?



Mine; Start Ada even though she’s injury Prone, Bench Oshoala, Sell Kerr

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Deltamani: 2:47pm On Jan 03, 2024
Linda Caicedo doesn't make a list of 23 players who are best in their positions, but makes the TOP 3 overall. Something doesn't add up?😂😂😂

I think Chiamaka Nnadozie not making it with Nigeria to the last 4 at the World Cup probably affected her ratings, She should be among the top3
