Super Falcons forward Chinwendu Ihezuo, was voted player of the match after scoring 2 goals that led Pachuca to a 3-0 victory against Guadalajara Chivas in the Mexican women's league.

Osinachi Ohale, also had an impressive performance in Defense…!

Any of them will do but Randy will definitely go with Plumptre there as her ball playing and going forward is better than Okeke’ down!

The Battle against Spain will definitely be in the Midfield, if you can Mark out Aitana Bonmati you have reduced them to 50%, then Mariona it’s Finnish..

I will go with Ayinde and Ucheibe as my double pivot in Midfield with Ayinde doing the Marking as she did to Lauren James! Ucheibe to cover the rest ground left as she’s more like a two player. Once Ayinde tire out bring in Deborah Abiodun to close the game..

Attacking Midfield I will go with Toni Payne ahead of Echegini as we need someone who can hold the ball well, drive and dribble her way through to feed the forwards, Echegini will be better as Sub in that game as she tends to lose the ball occasionally( Probably because our forwards are a bit far away and out of position)..

Ajibade will have to bring her A game against Ona Battle!
Ashleigh could struggle with fitness
The matches have just 2 days break in between & I hear there’d only be 18 players invited
She’s very good offensively but I don’t trust her defense game that’s why I like how Randy made her LB and not CB
Same way Alozie makes mistakes from a defensive point of view
Glad we have good centre backs and defensive midfielders that make up for their errors.
Ucheibe may not be happy playing the centre back again because that could happen
A good number of players would be disappointed because they would be dropped for the games.
Just 18 players. Oh my

Anything at all, i wish for Randy to end the Makeshift Era. We have about 5 players doing that currently for the team. Let's see a natural setup in at least a friendly. Just one friendly.

Ucheibe must play midfield o.

If Alozie brings back her World Cup form fine, she can compete if not we would be needing a stubborn Right Back of either Okeke or Nicole!

Going physical against Spain with strong tackles and render them useless as they can’t compete, Infact going toe-to-toe with them like pressing them from their Box, wining our 1-V-1 battles will help. Parauello can’t really beat Ohale and Demehin if they go on a foot race for the ball as they’re also quick and you can hardly catch them off guard..

Dey play. You guys think Spain aren't physical. E go shock una.

I call it reverse stereotype.

There's a stereotype that physical teams aren't usually technical. There's also a reverse stereotype that technically sound team that play tiki taka brand of football aren't physical or strong on the ball.

Both stereotypes are bullshit. As far as I know, that Spanish team is not soft. Underate their physicality at your own peril.

France women team wíll explain better to you. I remember Herve Renard packing the midfield in that Nations league final, and started their most physical midfielders, yet couldn't stop them.


That Barca game was just a match where most of the players didn't turn up. They were misplacing easy passes and missing easy shots, even from 1st half. That's how I know that they wouldn't do much on that day.

Even after everything, Chelsea only managed a goal and 2 shots on target. Which shows that they weren't pulling trees either.

All these you're writing is just fantasy.😂

We will loose that game.

By how much we loose will only depend on how well we play. If randy gets his formation right, we will loose by a respectable scoreline. But if we don't get our game together, we will loose heavily.

🏆 Aitana Bonmati is the 2024 Laureus World Sportswoman of the Year.

The outstanding midfielder was instrumental in Spain's first @FIFAWWC victory and shone for @FCBfemeni during their impressive season.

Don’t count Falcons out
We would get 2nd place & qualify if we prepare properly
Hopefully Waldrum gets his request
Falcons have not lost any official 90 minutes game since Zambia in AWCON 2022

Currently, Ajakaiye has the least chance of making the SF squad among them. She has a lot of competition. I mean Rinsola and Monday Gift are even struggling for minutes currently.

We need someone to fill that empty RW that Ordega left. Whoever is filling that spot since Franny just dey invisible to me. Dunno why it's so hard to find RWs.

Girl was crying like a baby whose candy got snatched.

Being short shouldn't be a problem sha. You can still make impact. The responsibility falls on the coach to find you a suitable midfield partner.

Both Players you mentioned are good in their on ways but can’t give us that Franny we used to know…! Maybe Rinsola 60%. If not Esther Okoronkwo doesn’t really like Playing on the flank and can’t really contribute what Franny does defensively in the past.

Exactly. They're all good in their own ways just like Ordega is good in her own ways. That's why all these Ordega's successor talks don't move me. No two players play exactly the same way.

Which spot? Shey we no get wingers again ni? It is not really a necessity to have a successor for her. Most of our current wingers are capable of playing across the front 3 so I don't understand where this makeshift dey come from. However, if you really want Ajakaiye in that team as Ordega's successor, allow her develop. She is still raw.

Is Franny even a RW?

Ajibade, Monday Gift, Kanu have all played as a RW for us.
