Super Falcons Face Tunisia, Algeria, Botswana In 13th Women AFCON by robosky02(op): 10:38am On Nov 23, 2024

Nigeria will tackle two North African teams, Tunisia and Algeria, as well as Botswana, in Group B of the 13th Women Africa Cup of Nations finals taking place in Morocco next summer.

The Falcons will surely relish another meeting with Algeria’s Green Ladies, whom they defeated 2-0 and 4-1 respectively in two friendly matches in Nigeria last month.

Botswana eliminated Gabon in the qualifying series and Tunisia were quarter-finalists at the last edition also hosted by Morocco.

At the draw conducted yesterday evening at the Technical Centre of the Mohamed VI Football Complex in Sale, outside Rabat, host nation Morocco, earlier slotted into Group A, learnt they will have to cope with Zambia, Senegal and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Cup holders, South Africa are in Group C and will square up to Ghana, Mali and Tanzania in the three-week, 12-nation final tournament taking place 5th – 26th July 202

Hosts Morocco finished as runners-up in the last edition in July 2022, with Zambia taking the bronze after a 1-0 defeat of Nigeria in the third-place match.

Wasn't played in Morocco the last time? And we got robbed, even when their miserable fans were attacking our girls with lasers and nothing was done about it. How is it being repeated again so soon in Morocco?

I’m thrilled about the upcoming Women Africa Cup of Nations finals next summer in Morocco! Competing in Group B alongside Tunisia, Algeria, and Botswana presents an exciting challenge for us, the Super Falcons.

I’m particularly looking forward to our matches against Algeria’s Green Ladies after our recent victories over them in Nigeria. Those wins give us confidence, but we know every game in the tournament will require focus and determination. Botswana and Tunisia will also be tough opponents, especially considering Botswana’s impressive qualification and Tunisia’s quarter-final performance in the last edition.

The draw sets up a fantastic tournament overall, with Morocco in Group A facing Zambia, Senegal, and DR Congo, while South Africa, the cup holders, will battle Ghana, Mali, and Tanzania in Group C. It’s shaping up to be an intense and thrilling competition with the best teams from across the continent.

As for Nigeria, we’re ready to give our all to reclaim our position at the top. The memory of Zambia’s bronze medal win over us in the last edition is a strong motivator. This time, we’re coming back stronger, united, and determined to make our nation proud. July 2025 can’t come soon enough!
