Why is Chiamaka not on the player of the year list, she did a lot for Paris fc, took them far in the champions league,, I think she should be the player of the year, she wasn't even shot listed, are they judging only with the cup of nations

Goodlady:
It was an error. CAF can be dumb a times.
But even if she's there, Okoronkwo or Ajibade will pip her. That place wey dem put her, na her unmatched title to win. So at tr end of the day, we are winning like 4 awards. At least 4. Anything short of that make Amajuuu komot teeth of CAF president and one of his socrotum!

Goodlady:
WPOFY - Give it to Ajibade or Okoronkwo
GKOTY - Give it to Nnandozie
WCOTY - Justin Madugu
WNTOTY - Super Falcons.

Other's no sure.

Can you all see we women are so good and are making Nigeria proud? Our records are unmatched. Compare SE to SF records. Achievements dey cry!

A lot of people made that complaint. They are asking whether CAF is discriminating against goalkeepers.

Women dey try, but forget women football because it's just uninteresting, uninspiring and less entertaining.

Football is a game that requires creativity, stamina (plenty of it) and foresight. I hail people who sit for 90 minutes watching women's football because those qualities aren't there.

These are some of the reasons why companies sponsor men's games and people are willing to watch men's games more than women's.

Speak for yourself brother.. The last time I watched the Super Eagles play for a whole 90 minutes without walking away was Korea/Japan 2002..Since the retirement of legends like Kanu,Oliseh, Jay Jay and Co., I found the Super Eagles matches to be everything and more you have used to describe the Women's game.

Whereas I have rarely missed any single match of the Super Falcons since the first AWCON in Abeokuta in 1998.... I find their games highly entertaining.

I usually watch women football just to see one female with good skills and techniques, after that, i just concentrate on that player or another one with that same characteristics.

There is this black young girl in Colombia, she has very good skills. Love watching her.

Also our Nigeria okoronkwo is exceptional too. Very brainy and awesome on the pitch.

johnie:
For me, Esther Okoronkwo deserves this!

The contributions of some players to their teams' success are sometimes underestimated.

The contribution of Moses Simon to the last two goals scored again Benin and generally to the team, for instance.

Also, Chukwueze's assists in the first two goals.

Linda Caicedo, currently plays for Real Madrid.

She is the first and only one to play at U-17, U-20 and Women's World Cups and score at all of them, in a single year, all by the age of 18.

She was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer at the age of 15 but overcame it to showcase her talent on the world stage at the 2022 U-17 World Cup in India where she helped her team to the finals and was joint highest goal scorer.

You should also find out about Vicky Lopez who is a highly decorated young Spanish player and had a Nigerian mother. She plays for Barcelona.

She points to the sky at 1:27 in memory of her late mum.

Linda and Vicky met at the final match of the 2022 U-17 World Cup.

Love800:
Linda caicedo. Exactly. You just help me remember her name well.

Very technical footballer with ability to curve balls inside the net, plus good change of pace. Thank God she is playing for a good club. Wish she was in England(premier League), i would have been watching her matches because i do watch women club football at times.

The Spanish Liga F is currently the best female league in the world followed by the French Division 1 Féminine.

The English Women's Super League (WSL) is fourth after the German Frauen-Bundesliga.

Winners of the The Best FIFA Women's Player and Ballon d'or since 2021 have all been players from the Spanish Liga F.

The 2025 winner, Aitana Bonmati, won 3 times consecutively since 2023. Alexis Putellas won in 2021 and 2022.

Both of them play for Barcelona FC.
