Which Kanu as no.9? That would be another error, I would rather he play Esther Okoronkwo there..

Kanu — Oshoala — Ajibade


Macleans & Okoronkwo as sub for Oshoala & Kanu


Christy Ucheibe — Toni Payne — Deborah Abiodun

Onyi Echegini as Sub

Alozie — Ohale — Demehin — Okeke

Nicole Payne as Sub

Chiamaka Nnadozie in Goal


That Real Madrid Winger that plays on the Right for Spain is very quick too, I don’t know if Okeke can keep up.. Maybe Nicole Payne will have to start considering her pace or Okeke will stay defensive all through and this call for Kanu to start as she can go box-2-box on the flank.
When it comes to scoring goals for Falcons lately
I'd put my money on Kanu's finishing & positioning to Oshoala who is better at reading the game, team work and tracking back
We really need to score if we stand any chance at all in this tourney
Oshoala has played as a winger for Nigeria in the past
Can't be as sharp as Kanu"s end product result
Spanish defenders will bully Esther off the ball and not give her time to advance
We are not as quick as Spain so whenever we get the ball they should try to keep it as much as possible or use it efficiently
Esther that shoots from the centre of the pitch due to pressure

If you need a no.9 upfront that the Defender can’t withstand her Power then you will have to go for Maclean, she can shoot at sight with both feet’s effectively, very quick and dangerous in the Air.!

We need a no.9 that hustle, very good & strong in her pressing, can win aerial balls and Ihezuo isn’t the one.

On this day last year, Oshoala and Nigeria stunned the co-hosts! 🇳🇬😮

Lol, you beat me to posting this.
I'm so happy with the fact that this day falls on a day before the Spain game! The girls can reflect back, see what they did that day and task themselves to do same or even better! No coach pep talk or motivation can be better than this!

All road leads to Nantes tomorrow!

I said Kanu though
Macleans can get her chance second half
I doubt if coach will trust Ihezuo going forward
She had her chance
It’s a short tournament
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by EEGA: 3:23pm On Jul 27, 2024
To beat Spain we need a creative mid-field, with both Ajibade and Echegini starting in front of Abiodun and Ucheibe.Use Alozie and Nicole as wing-backs.Ohale, Demehin and Okeke starts as centre-backs.

Esther Okoronkwo should lead the attack while Macleans Chinonyerem comes from the bench.

JUST IN: CANADA Women’s National Team in Olympic Mess..

Assistant coaches Joseph Lombardi and Jasmine Mander are the people involved in this drone spy story. Both are fired and sent home immediately.

Bev Priestman chooses to withdraw for the first match scheduled for Thursday against New Zealand.

Joseph Lombardi is an analyst who was the unaccredited person. Jasmine Mander is an assistant to Bev Priestman and has been with her since the Tokyo Olympics.

Per @Devin_Heroux, there were two incidents of Canada Soccer staff members operating a drone over New Zealand soccer practices, July 19th and second time on July 22nd.
And update on this story.

The head coach of Canada has also been sent home as initial investigation shows she was also in the know if the drone controversy. What's crazy is that they've been doing this for years.

Christie Sinclair also had a to release a statement to absolve players of the disgrace. She claims they never knew this was going on.

Hopefully she will get her moment.. Randy have his reasons picking her for the tournament. She didn’t just fly in from nowhere into the 18players list giving the number of forwards we have.

JUST IN | FIFA has banned Canada head coach Bev Priestman for a year following the Olympics drone spying scandal.

Canada has been deducted 6 points in the ongoing Olympic women's football tournament and fined 200,000 Swiss francs.

The 6 points deduction means Canada, who'd bagged a 2-1 win over New Zealand in their opener, now slide to last in Group A (on - 3 points) ahead of their second match against France on Sunday.

Too lenient. They should have been sent home. What kind of cheating is that? Spying on opponents with drone? That's too low.
