GeneralDae:
Same reason Messi and Ronaldo are easily criticized when they have just one bad day. It's more difficult to stay at the top and maintain the pressure of being at the top than to get there.

Exactly what BascoVanVeli need to spot right now

lovewins:
Is Onome Ebi playing active club football?

There's rarely club related update on her socials lately, I also noticed she flew out of Nigeria for the Canada friendly. The info on Wikipedia shows she last signed for a Chinese second division club, is she still there?

She's currently unattached, I think she had a deal with a Turkish Club Atasehir Belediyesispor which didn't go through before the game against CIV...


Wished she had signed for them, the Turkish league is currently one of the hottest and most improved Women Football league in Europe right now, a lot of investment have been put after the FA mandated all the big Clubs like Galatasaray, Fernabache and co must own a club...

BascoVanVeli:
That's not ovation that is ridiculous criticism.

I will take it as an Ovation, as it stands if Asisat Oshoala and Ifeoma Onumonu makes a mistake now, Oshoala own will be loudest being the fact that she's the biggest, as the greatest female footballer in Africa, the most popular and one of the best in the World all eyes will definitely being on her, the pressure isn't easy ooo


Everyone around is expecting her to perform better than the others..

BascoVanVeli:
Of course it does but once Oshoala is involved the noise is louder

Yes the Ovation should be louder because she's the Superfalcons star player and one of the best in the world...

BascoVanVeli:
I thought Oshoala was the only one that struggles in front of goal

It happens to every striker at one point or the other.. But still one of the best striker we have right now..

Team of the Week for Ngozi Okobi

carbonado:
.... Maybe a bad day at the office. Apparently, from the chat some people attested to it being unusual....#We watch......

Surely a bad day, I felt frustrated for her yesterday cause the
Chances kept coming but she
Couldn't bury them...

When you have two quality Center Backs and a good Defensive Midfielder, it allows you to get your full backs higher in wide areas.

Earlier on last night Ifeoma Onumonu wasn't herself in front of goal.. it was a bad day in front of Goalpost ..

... Ifeoma Onumonu

If people actually watched football they'd know Halimatu Ayinde doesn't actually play DM, but because they see her chasing the ball and tackling and assume she does, just goes to show people haven't got a clue about football.

it's more because of the energy she has they just play her flat CM at Eskilstuna United.
The fact she pops up with the odd goal and also finds herself near the opposition box quite alot is an instant giveaway she isnt a DM


She's simply a CENTRAL/BOX-TO-BOX MIDFIELDER, She covers more ground and destroys all over the pitch..

Club or Country this trio are the best in Midfield...

To me (#12) Patri is the best Defensive Midfielder in the World followed by Germany Lena Oberdorf.


Which pair would be the possible best trio for the Superfalcons in Midfield going to the AWCON and World Cup proper
• Rita Chikwelu
• Ngozi Okobi
• Halimatu Ayinde
• Rasheedat Ajibade
• Regina Otu
• Christy Ucheibe
•Tony Payne
• Amanda Mbadi
• Peace Efih
• Onyi Echegini
• Joy Bokiri

18th League goal for Maclean's Chinonyerem today...


Eyes set on the Golden Boot...

Otu commences the season with an assist, a goal, and the player of the match


SuperFalcons of Nigeria Midfielder, Regina Otu scored her first goal of the season for Belarus Women’s League side, Minsk FK on Friday.

The former Rivers Angels player scored the first goal of the game for Minsk FK in the fourth minute as her team defeated Dnipro Mogilev 4-0.

She also had a hand in one of the goals scored by her teammates ending the game with a goal and an assist.

Her superb performance earned her the Player of the match prize.

Minsk FK occupies the second position on the league table with a point behind league leaders, Zorka-BDU after five games.

Regina Otu and Minsk FK will hope to win the league this time around after failing to clinch the title last season with a UEFA Women’s Champions League qualification also in sight

Barcelona Femenino next three League games.. And there's no way Asisat Oshoala won't get those goals against this teams, I remembered last season when Hermosa was 2nd in the top Scoring Log, we all thought Esther was already the winner of the golden boot but Boooooom Hermaso Scored 3goals in their Last League game...

Asisat Oshoala still have the chances 100%

05/05/22 Barcelona - Sevilla

07/05/22 Rayo Vallecano - Barcelona

14/05/22 Barcelona - Atlético Madrid

BascoVanVeli:
The return of Asisat Oshoala. IMO she did great for a player making a return after 2 months. More to come surely


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5onwDyvGt8

I wished she had scored one of those one-on-one chances..
I still see her wining the League golden boot cause Barcelona will most likely feed her with the balls so that she can get those goals as they have already won the league... 3 game's left though

Imagine she was out for two good months and she was only surpassed by just a goal... Imagine if she didn't injure before...

NWFL SUPER 6: Monday Gift Joins Bayelsa Queens on Loan.

Jacobson Park

Bayelsa Queens FC have secured the loan deal of FC Robo and Super Falcons prolific striker Monday Gift ahead of the Nigeria Women Football League Super Six coming up in Benin City, Edo State next month.

The Player was received on arrival at the Bayelsa International Airport in Yenagoa by the Chairman of Bayelsa Queens FC Pastor Apreala Robin Angonimi and later taken to the Commissioner for Youth and Sports Development Dr Daniel Igali.

Robin Apreala expressed delight to have a player in the mode of Monday Gift to bolster the team as they intensify preparations for the NWFL Super Six.

The Chairman thanked the Proprietor and Coach of FC Robo Emmanuel Osahon Orobosa for his Co-operation and understanding in sealing the loan move of Monday Gift to Bayelsa Queens.

On her part, Monday Gift was elated to be joining a team like Bayelsa Queens as this was her dream for playing under Experienced Coach Moses Aduku . She also promised to put in her best to win the Nigeria Women Football League Super Six with Bayelsa Queens.

Bayelsa Queens FC is also expected to aquire the service of another top player from Zambia before the commencement of the season ending Super Six.

Asisat Oshoala is very quick and it takes some desperate defending to stop her. All she needs right now is to be more Clinical.

That may have been the first time Barcelona have ever beaten Wolfsburg but there was such a gulf in class on display at the Camp Nou. But for Schult in the German club’s goal it might have been ten. Barcelona are a winning machine, and that record crowd has been watching a vintage display from an all-time great team. The final looks like their destiny, even when there’s a second leg to come.

Brilliant move from Asisat Oshoala
We want to see this Brilliant Asisat for the Superfalcons again

https://www.facebook.com/518084644901071/posts/5254350687941086/

That was devastating from Barcelona, and they went from the start, blowing Wolfsburg away with their speed of attack, the deluge started by those strikes from Bonmatí and Graham Hansen.

The truth is that there is no more unstoppable team in football than Barcelona’s women’s team. They are phenomenal.

VFL Wolfsburg got it all wrong from onset, you don't and can't play Almighty Barcelona Femenino like that......

Once Barcelona coach bring in Oshoala during the second half they will start playing those Vertical balls upfront for her and i don't think any of Wolfsburg defender can keep up with her Pace and Strength...

HT; Barcelona (4)-(0) Wolfsburg

Regina Otu is the most Combative and Best ball wining Defensive Midfielder the Superfalcons currently have ... She's some inch ahead of Christy Ucheibe who needs at least two more years to reach her potentials...

Real Madrid Femenino will reportedly sign one of the world’s best defenders for free

Real Madrid Femenino are still fighting to return to a UEFA Women’s Champions League place for the 2022/23 season, but their first-ever appearance in the competition in 2021/22 was quite the success. After proving they could beat an elite team by eliminating Manchester City in order to enter the competition’s group stages in the first place, they advanced to the knockout stages where they gave the best team in the world, Barcelona, a real run for their money.
Of course, because Las Blancas ultimately fell short and did not quite have the quality or experience that Barcelona do, Madridistas have been hoping for a marquee signing or two in the summer 2022 transfer window.

This past summer, Real already made some important signings, inking the second-most prolific striker in the league in Esther Gonzalez, as well as the league’s next big star, Athenea del Castillo. They have the right foundation in place of players who can grow in stature with the club, however, they need the right superstars with experience to take the next step.

According to a report from FutFem.com, Real Madrid Femenino have already secured one such player – on a free transfer, no less.
Las Blancas have already agreed to sign Lyon center back Kadeisha Buchanan on a free transfer this summer.

The Canadian international is one of the best center backs in the world and has years of experience at the highest level. Buchanan has played for the most prestigious women’s team in the world, Lyon, since 2017, earning 76 appearances during that time span. And she is an important player for one of the better national teams on the planet in Canada.

Buchanan is a four-time Champions League winner and a one-time World XI defender. She has the pedigree that no other defender on Real Madrid has – not even their current world-class central defender, Ivana Andres.

At 26 years old, Buchanan is in the prime of her career and can take another step if she leads Real to great success in the coming years. A leader and an all-around excellent center back, Buchanan can form a foundational duo in front of Misa with Andres, giving Las Blancas the dynamic central defensive pairing they have needed.

Let’s see if this deal does indeed get closed this summer, as Madridistas know not to take anything for granted. Elsewhere, the club has eyes on two more major free agent signings, including another star in the French top flight, PSG striker Marie-Antoinette Katoto, who could replace Kosovare Asllani as the Galactica up top if the Swede were to leave this summer.

Good to have the Likes of Asisat Oshoala, Cadately Mariona, Claudio Pina and Patri Geheuro Back...

Lieke Marten still out for the now...

Barcelona Femenino training at the Camp Nou stadium ahead of their Semi Final clash against Wolfsburg VFL tomorrow

Bigzigg:
She's too young to go that route.

She's not too Young at all, at 24..?? She would be 25years by 20th of June, That's her plan and the way she wants it, by the way Asisat Oshoala moved to China almost at same age, I can tell you the Mexican Liga MX Femenil is not as weak as you see it, they will compete well with the European Leagues Sides that are between top6-15..


Maybe you should watch their League games and see for yourself how Competitive the league is now.. They're second best behind the NWSL in the North American region..

Superfalcons Veteran Defender Osinachi Ohale

1 Goal for Maclean's Chinonyerem increasing her goal tally to 17 this season...

Banuso99:
None of the groups is tough.

If you know the current state of this 3 teams (Mexico, Jamaica, Haiti) you won't be saying this... Given the fact that the US will beat them all and it's left for the remaining two to battle for the remaining spot..

But three former WC teams is no joke
Mexico out scored opponents 34-0 and Haiti outscored their opponents 44-0.
