Wolfsburg coach already aware of the Oshoala threat

VfL Wolfsburg coach Stephan Lerch about Barcelona Femeni's Quartet:

"One must emphasize the offensive of the opponent, especially the quartet Oshoala, Martens, Hermoso and Hansen: That is already top European level."

FT Wolfsburg wins. I'm feeling sad right now
Re: Nigeria Female National Teams' Thread by TheSuperNerd(m): 9:09pm On Aug 25, 2020
Yeah, it's really sad but Wolfsburg are a mightily tough side. They have won this competition before and were ousted by Lyon in last season's semis.

Oshoala and Barca can learn again from this and strengthen up for next season. So close again but will have to try again in 2021.

Congrats to Wolfsburg.

Oghiabekhva becomes first African to clinch UEFA Women's Champions League Golden Boot



Minsk failed to progress beyond the Round of 16 but the Nigerian still finished the tournament's top scorer to make history

Emuidzhi Oghiabekhva has clinched the Golden Boot of the 2019-20 Uefa Women's Champions League following her exploits for Minsk.

Oghiabekhva scored 10 goals in seven games for Minsk and becomes the first African woman to finish among the Champions League top scorers since the inception of the tournament in 2001.

Despite Minsk's Round of 16 exit to Barcelona, the Nigerian scored six goals in qualifying rounds and four in the main competition on her fourth European outing with the Belarusian side.

After Sunday's final in Spain, she emerged as jot-topscorer and will share the Golden Boot with Arsenal's Vivianne Miedema and Breidablik's Berglind Bjorg Borvaldsdottir also netting 10 times.

This is coming months after she was named the 2019 Belarusian Women's Premier League Best Player of the Year, having scored 29 goals in 17 league games, totalling 44 goals for Minsk.

Her fine form saw Minsk celebrate a domestic treble during the 2019 campaign and reach the Round of 16 of the Champions League.

Before joining Minsk in 2016, the 30-year-old has featured twice for Rossiyanka twice and Energiya Voronezh and BIIK Kazygurt once.

She has now competed in the Champions League with four different clubs in eight seasons, scoring a total of 29 goals in 33 matches.

Following her last season's Player of the Year performances, she has kept up her fine goalscoring run, scoring 17 goals in 11 outings for Minsk before leaving the club due to injury in August.

At international level, she featured for Nigeria at the 2012 Africa Women's Cup of Nations in Equatorial Guinea, where the West Africans finished fourth at the expense of Cameroon.

Exactly we need a coach ASAP.. now that AWCON have been moved to July 2022, I hope they get the team busy and ready before then..

By then
ONOME Ebi will be 39yrs
Faith Ikidi 35yrs
Rita Chikwelu 34yrs
Tochukwu Oluehi 35yrs we need a better young blood to take over from them..

The attack position look very good by 2022 young star strikers like Kanu, Ajibade, Ihezuo and Imo would be ready enough to battle out our Senior Strikers for Starting berth..

Earlier this year I read somewhere where someone was saying due to cancellation of AWCON, falcons will probably not have a coach this year and perhaps not until mid 2021. That prediction is looking very likely. Sometime last month the female presenter on channels tv sports show was even joking that the falcons record of about 18 months without playing any games will be beaten during years 2020 and 2021, another prediction that is looking likely. It is clear that NFF don’t care for the falcons despite Pinnick always calling them “our beloved Super Falcons”

CAF postponed the u17 qualifiers for African teams. I even saw some rumour this morning that FIFA may cancel the u17 world cup as India are struggling with the pandemic. As for the u20, qualifiers are still set to take place as planned. As for NFF? Na only God know for them

Female football in Nigeria is gradually dying off. No coach for Super falcons up till now. Even the U17 and U20 female caretaker coaches have not been confirmed. Our poorly funded female league meant to act as a developmental process for the younger generation has been inactive even before the pandemic. Even with the pandemic, our football officials will now have a bigger excuse for prosponing the league. The future is definitely not bright for female football in Nigeria.

As for U17 female world cup in India, FIFA should just change the venue from Asia to another continent

Will be difficult for fifa to find new hosts soo close to the tournament

On the bolded, you are right, I trust NFF to use COVID as an excuse to everything regarding women and youth football from now till the next two years. I still can’t believe back in feb/march, before covid, the women u17 and u20 didn’t have head coaches. Useless federation

Omagbemi turns down Falcons job, NFF shortlists five foreigners

United States-based former Super Falcons handler, Florence Omagbemi, has turned down an offer by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) to return to the team’s technical crew. Omagbemi, who captained the Super Falcons for 16 years, was head coach when the team won the African Women’s Nations Cup trophy at Cameroun 2016. Her contract was not renewed by the NFF in December that year despite calls by some football loving-Nigerians to the NFF to do so.

A source close to Omagbemi’s family told The Guardian yesterday that the NFF offered the position of an assistant coach to her on Tuesday evening with an order to relocate from the United States to Nigeria immediately.

The Guardian learnt yesterday that the NFF has shortlisted three Americans and two European coaches for the job.Contacted yesterday, NFF President, Amaju Pinnick said the search for the new Super Falcons coach was in the final stages. “We are in final stages, and it will be concluded latest on Friday,” he said.
