Coach Nora Häuptle (Zambia) on Nigeria 🇳🇬:

"This is an opponent we must be able to beat if we want to reach the semi finals, qualify for the World Cup, and win this tournament. We’ve prepared a smart plan to challenge them. But it’s not only about Nigeria — Egypt and Malawi are also part of the picture."

There’s this particular player I’m seeing in the SuperFalconet for the over 5 years now..

She was part of Blessing Demehin 2022 set and the past U20 set that played the 2024 World Cup..

What is she still doing in this current U20 set up of 2026??

Let’s make it make sense, not that she’s even that good or exceptional. She mainly play as a Left Back and for Nasarawa Amazon in the NWFL 🇳🇬

Are there no better fullbacks in the League??

Why is she still in the U20 set up from 2022 till date??

I just don’t want to mention her name but those familiar with the Local League and youth players will know her better. If she’s that good let her play her way to the SuperFalcons.

For Christ sake this player played the U20 World Cup with the likes of Blessing Demehin, Rofiat Imuran, Flourish Sabastine, Deborah Abiodun, Esther Onyenezide, Chiamaka Okwuchukwu etc

At least 2 edition of the U20 is enough for a player..!! I’m not against the player but can we move on with other talented options instead of recycling one that hasn’t proven anything till date.
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 7:16pm On Jan 30
Unfortunately, your protest is pointless IF you don't name names!
You need to identify and remove the bad apple from the basket, or else it would spoil the bunch.

Oluchi Ohaegbulem, Defender ( Nasarawa Amazon)

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by Deltamani: 9:03pm On Jan 30
Na she be this…
➖2022 World Cup

➖She captained the last set to the 2024 World Cup..
➖ And now with the 2026 set as well.

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 9:12pm On Jan 30
Sorry, but it is highly UNLIKELY this team will not win the WAFCON this go around. Why?

The coaching staff have not recognized the fact that other competitors, specifically the Moroccans, South Africans, Ghanaians and even the Zambians have scouted and dissected this squad and know what to do to beat them.

Goalkeepers:
2. Neither Comfort nor Mojisola have been contacted regarding a switch to play for the SF. So, there is no credible goalie. Other teams will look towards taking out Nnadozie.

Defenders.
1• Osinachi Ohale - Mavis needs a break. She showed signs of slowing down during the last WAFCON and even watching he play at Pachuca this season, its obvious she has lost several steps. Shukurat OLADIPO has actually become a first team player for AS Roma, and has been playing a lot of games for them. She should be on the team.
5• Chidinma Okeke / Maureen Umeugochukwu - Neither of these two ladies have been in contention for this team. It would make sense to bring in Sikiratu ISAH, who is a decent defender that would add more stability.

Midfielders
2• Christy Ucheibe - In my view, Christie Ucheibe performed way below expectation, during the last WAFCON. Radical move, but it may be time to explore other options. I will seriously consider one of the trio of Chioma OLISE (Gala), Favour EMMANUEL (Lokomotive Moscow) or Elisha SULOLA (OFI Crete), all of whom offer a different take on the midfield and will give the opponents something new to chew on.

Forwards
1• Asisat Oshoala - clearly, any right thinking coach would realize Oshoala has outlived her usefulness to the WNT. She has served well and deserves to leave the stage. Joy OMEWA is a MUST replacement for her.

3• Ijamilusi Folashade - still not a big fan, and will take Uchenna KANU over her. There is also the youngster, Florence OKOLI (Sandvikens IF) who could be a revelation with her pace and finishing. But...

Unfortunately for Nigeria, we have dull-ards in charge. From the federation to the coaching staff. They lack the foresight to realize other teams have scouted the Super Falcons in and out. From the Moroccans (who will do ANYTHING to win at all costs), to the Zambians (who were thoroughly embarrassed by Nigeria the last time) to the South Africans (who Nigeria dethroned as Champions) to the Ghanaians (who have a point to prove). Our ladies have a MASSIVE bullseye on their backs and the Nigerian FA are blind to that fact.


Schemerkhiz:
My 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣6️⃣ WAFCON Squad

Goalkeepers 🧤
1• Chiamaka Nnadozie
2• Comfort Erhabor/ Mojisola Ayodele
3• 🇳🇬 Based

Defenders 🛡️
1• Osinachi Ohale
2• Blessing Demehin
3• Ashleigh Plumptre
4• Michelle Alozie
5• Chidinma Okeke / Maureen Umeugochukwu
6• Nicole Payne
7• Rofiat Imuran

Midfielders 🧠
1• Halimatu Ayinde
2• Christy Ucheibe
3• Deborah Abiodun
4• Onyi Echegini
5• Toni Payne
6• Rasheedat Ajibade

Forwards 🥅
1• Asisat Oshoala
2• Esther Okoronkwo
3• Ijamilusi Folashade
4• Chinwendu Ihezuo
5• Chioma Okafor
6• Monday Gift
7• Rinsola Babajide / Joy Omewa


Note; I put Ajibade in midfield to accommodate more options in Attack but she should play on the wing.

Anyway there will be some shocker with at least 3 slots going to those Home based players they will want to force in by any means.

Defender Oluchi Ohaegbulem captained the Nigeria women's U-20 team (Falconets) at the 2024 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Colombia.

There is no way on earth that this woman is under 20!

The falconets captain and taiwo afolabi I'm tired of seeing them in the youth set up .... I'm very sure somebody close to them knows someone in the NFF that reserved their place every youth tournament....also they're overaged and it's embarrassing, Nigeria shouldn't be cheating in women football

This take is surprising because I remember clearly I raised objection to this months ago and you had a different opinion. So what changed?

There is no loop, Taiwo is the right age for this level. She didn't even play at the U20WC last time.

Btw both Oshoala and Ajibade played at the U20WC twice. If u are under the age limit there is no reason why not.

That is false. She played in 2 U17 tournaments and now is with the U20. Have you seen Taiwo Afolabi? She still looks like a little kid. That the last person you want to accuse of being overaged.
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by lovewins: 8:41pm On Jan 31
JOE to Chelsea? Didn't even know there was interest.

Indifferent about either outcomes. Both a great clubs, the top consideration for me will be playing time.

Anyone who claims she is still 18 yrs old is only kidding themselves.
There is absolutely NO WAY she isn't way older than that.

Based on the synopsis of her club and country career, it means she started playing at that level when she was 12, which is absolutely BS!
Hard to prove that she is legit and not also an age cheat.

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by AkinDS: 9:56pm On Jan 31
BTW, she will pick Naija before CV. Reason is more opportunities to medal - just like Chioma Okafor did.
Only issue is nobody has reached out to her.

Her official DOB is 2-3-2007. This year she will be 19. So that means in 2021, she was 14 which is not out of the ordinary. Alot of female players start off their club football carriers at 15-17 especially in Africa, parts of Asia and South America. This is not US where young girls have the option of going to college and playing football there until they go pro. Again go watch her play for the U17 falcons in 2022. She was much smaller than her teammates and opponents in both height and Physique.

Also she has played in 2 U17 World cups not 2 U20 world cups as was alluded to. Lets get that fact straight.

No this is Taiwo's 2nd time and she didn't even go to the U20 world cup last time. Plus we all knew she was 14/15 in her first world cup

I had an AFCON highlight taken down so I just stopped. I still have most of the games so I might do some later.
