Was actually going to say I liked the love shown to her by the Nigerian coaches and players after the game.
Its imperative to show that she is loved and respected by her own people, considering the fact that she could be one for the future...
Well said!!

These North Koreans are the biggest problem of this WC. They will likely defend the title. So very strong and yet to concede.

U20 FIFA WWC 2026
Poland 0-1 Colombia
North Korea 2-0 Japan

Poland has been knocked out. We face Colombia while Canada face North Korea in Quarter finals.

We go again. So no de ja vu against the Poles. It is well.

I am absolutely loving Christiana Uzoma's U20 World Cup tournament. This is her true breakout platform.

It takes you back to Chiamaka Nnadozie's 2018 U20 WWC Tournament and further back to Tochukwu Oluehi's 2006 U20 WWC Tournament.

Oluehi and Nnadozie went on to become Super Falcons goalminders, Wafcon Champions and Senior FIFA WWC gladiators. Uzoma is on the path.
Hmm 🤔
Alaba Jonathan 2010 nko?? Didn’t she do enough?

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 11:04pm On Sep 17
Ah yes, she had a solid U20 WC in 2010 keeping goal till the final.

Went on to win Wafcon 2016 as our #1 GK but never made a Senior Women's World Cup appearance unlike Oluehi and Nnadozie.

As in, it beats me why she was never transitioned into Super falcons. Should have been her with Tochukwu, then partnered with Nnadozie. Maybe her height but the girl was good and has command of her defense line
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 10:18am On Sep 18
Never transitioned into Super Falcons? Really??

She was the Super Falcons' Wafcon winning GK at Wafcon 2016 in Cameroon. A Super Falcons heroine.

Nigerian U17 Flamingoes vs Ghana U17s today

WafuB U17 Girls Cup 2026 (also doubling as U17 Wafcon Qualifiers)

Both teams are 2026 FIFA U17 World Cup-bound. This tournament has indeed come at the right time as both sides gear up for Maroc 2026 FIFA U17 WWC with eyes also on securing the U17 Wafcon ticket to the 1st ever official edition of an U17 Championship for African teams.

There is also the first ever U20 Wafcon scheduled to launch its format in 2027.

Super Falcons defender Chidinma Okeke has completed her transfer to Napoli in the Serie A Women’s League, joining the Italian side from Mexican club Club América.

Was at two world Cups though… 2010 and 2019

But again that was due to the fact that she had to contend with Precious Dede, Tochukwu Oluehi then who were still in their A level…

Even me sef wonder weti I read oh cause she was one of the stars of the 2016 WAFCON… someone who broke into the SuperFalcons after the 2010 U20 World Cup…

Should be or One of the most confident SuperFalcons goalkeeper ever.., I guess her height didn’t help matters but was very good around even with her short body…

AKA… Alaba Krokro😂😂

Okeke Chidinma signed with Napoli 🇮🇹

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 6:10pm On Sep 18
I know she was in the WC Squads. But my point stands. She never made a WWC Appearance in goal for the Super Falcons.

Did any of you noticed that 18yrs SuperFalconet Center Back Rebecca Adegbemile behaves like Osinachi Ohale??

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 6:11pm On Sep 18
Back to Super Falcons➡️👌🏽

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 6:13pm On Sep 18
I did not want to throw the comparison too early but damn she gave me confidence whenever she went into her duels. She and Ekezie are a solid pair but Adegbemile has that High Ceiling Swagger of a CB.

I thought to myself, here is someone who can definitely match Romaine Gandanou power for power. She is good. I hope to see more of her as she matures.

And you know the reasons she didn’t get to play but was still a very good goalie…
The last time we had all 3 goalkeepers in the team that were good enough to start was the trio of Dede, Oluehi and Alaba…

2006/7 era as well, Dede, Oluehi and Ayegba..

Till date now, NFF are now gambling with that position, get one good goalie, a back up and a regular 3rd spot for their choice.
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 6:19pm On Sep 18
Leave the reasons. The point is simple and has specific focus.
My hope is for Uzoma to follow the paths of Oluehi and Nnadozie who shone at U20 WWC tournaments and went on to become Wafcon Champs and FIFA WWC appearance makers. That is all.

She got that Ohale trait but still lacking the Physicality and Pace while still at U20..

Let’s see how far she progresses as this is just a stepping stone for her…

I wonder what really happened to her usual CB partner who wears no.6 during the qualifiers

She’s well built too and i really like her ahead of Rebecca before now.

Nigeria happened i guess!

I hope so too…. When a goalkeeper shines like this at the Youth level, her pathway to the SuperFalcons and Europe is 💯 a reality .. weda village people like it or not.
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 6:44pm On Sep 18
Okay, so 6 teams in the competition as Benin withdrew. A league format of 6 sides.

All 6 teams would play 5 matches against one another once. The teams with the most points at the end wins the Wafu B U17 Girls title.

And the qualification slots should be 2 ahead of the 1st ever U17 Women Wafcon in 2027. So the top 2 teams with most pts after 5 games each qualify. If there is a tie in points, H2H and GD will will checked.

Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 6:46pm On Sep 18
She will get better. At 18, lots of room for improvement and physical growth. Ekezie too has been quite strong.

Kemi Adegbuyi is such a baller talent abeg. Scored goal number 1 vs Ghana U17s with a wonderful right footed strike after cutting in from left to center.
