Madugu outsmarted a world cup winning coach, Jorge Vilda

Madugu orchestrated the first ever remontada in Wafcon Finals history. No team has ever come back fron 2 goals down in a Wafcon final until today. Ofcos it has to be Africa's most dominant side to pull that off, Nigeria's Super Falcons.

Love him, hate him but he did what Waldrum couldnt do. Win a WAFCON.

With all that said... I personally believe we can still do better in that dept.

Thank you Dr., very well said. He gets to keep his job for now and rightfully so. When we are not Spurs, why would we sack a cup winning coach.

We all know he is not good, against world class teams. We don't stand a chance, his decision making is poor, and he is not tactically sound. Slow in making changes when needed and easily predictable.

Dump him fast!!

Would have, should have, could have, etc. Yes 2 red cards were unfortunate but the fact is Randy didn't win it and JUSTIN has.

He played against France and got a respectable scoreline despite not having his best legs. Let the man die before you bury him.

This is the issue with people like you, you value immediate success rather than building a legacy that guarantees long term dominance. I'll be here to remind you when this same Madugu makes you cry.

Esther was the most impactful player on the team. Apart from her PK’s, Ajibade didn’t really do anything spectacular. That was Esther’s award

My prayers from the 2022 wafcon came alive in Esther. For the long set pieces.

I don knee dan beg God to give us who go dey bury short set piece as e be like the Corner kick don see ijamilusi already.

Esther having a hand in 90% of our goals in this tournament should have earned her the MVP IMO sha.

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by HeavenlyHolines(m): 11:33pm On Jul 26, 2025

If the coach can go for more training and allow the girls to play their wings, I think they will do well. If you watch, Plumtree wasn't playing well in the first half because Ihezuo wasn't a winger, so she suffered for it. Immediately after they brought the number 2, everything changed.

Bro we sha need to appreciate their hard work and dedication.

Next AFCON I would want them to win it. Even if they're playing Nigeria at the final. I want them to reap the results of their investments.

Ajibade didn't have the nerves to play the PK. Thank God for everything, but we still have a lot to do. We need to find a complete replacement for Ohale and another two young creative midfielders.

I don't agree with that last paragraph sha... I would never support any North African team against Nigeria. I would prefer Ghana or even South Africa. The next one eh, they must lose.

My dear, I see grace in her life from under 20 and the 2019 world cup. She was the substitute goalkeeper remember.

Congratulations to the Team and to the Coaching Crew.
Special congratulations to Esther Okoronkwo, my woman of the tournament.
She has the energy, skill and sense.
Her excellent long freekick skills gave us 3 goals. (2 against Zambia, 1 against Morocco today).
Plus her selflessness to create chances and give an assist.
🇳🇬 🇳🇬 🇳🇬 Green White Green till I die!!!

Agree with this. It's why I was careful not to criticise him all through. Yes he's technically inept but he had milestones that one shouldn't just discount.

Got out of the group stage without conceding a goal. I think that is the first time we've done that.

Went 5 games without conceding a goal in open play.

Got us to the final and won the cup.

He absolutely deserves commendation.

I sincerely hope he isn't asked to continue, for the sake of the team, but I also wouldn't go scorched earth doing so because like you said, he did what Waldrum couldn't do.
