Nigeria 🇳🇬 🆚 Cameroon 🇨🇲 Comfort Erhabor Oladipo ➖ Isah ➖ Demehin ➖ Ogbonna Okobi ➖ Ucheibe ➖ Echegini Ajibade ➖ Monday ➖ Babajide

GeneralDae:That’s the news on ground right now, we’re waiting for CAF reports.. |
Brighton are going to miss Chiamaka going to the WAFCON.. Imagine one of the fans saying she’s far better than the Club 2nd choice goalkeeper who used to be second choice to Mary Earps in England 🏴 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_mY7bN1AuU?si=BB1WPWRpy61BFZnG But again Chiamaka need competition in her position, at least someone we can rely on when she’s not available..!! Mojisola Ayodele should also be given a chance… |
I don’t think Nigeria will have this type of high body level players and struggle to beat any of the world top teams… Angola have Seteco and Marta but couldn’t get to the WAFCON, I thought with them they will have alot of advantages playing with players with male testosterone levels.
|
BascoVanVeli:Yeah… D2 for now but she’s one fast rising talent we must keep an eye on especially. Imagine having a Barbra Banda type of player in our attack.. The likes of Tabitha Chawinga and Temwa Chawinga started off in the Swedish League D2 before the upgrade to D1 just that the Swedish League is no longer at that level it used to be.

Expected to hit the Falcons’ camp before training on Thursday is Israel-based defender Sikiratu Isah. Goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie, defenders Osinachi Ohale and Michelle Alozie, and forward Chinwendu Ihezuo are expected at the team’s Hilton Hotel after training on Thursday. Mexico-based wing back Chidinma Okeke and midfielder Halimatu Ayinde are being expected in Yaounde on Friday. 🖊️ NFF Media |

lovewins:Where did he get those statistics from? Apart from Wikipedia which isn’t correct? Mbachu had more impact in terms of play, goals and assists than some names above her there..! He should have put out their correct goals scored and assists especially WAFCON, Qualifiers for the major competitions. |
Imagine this rubbish, when did this person start watching women’s football?? Stella Mbachu at no.9 What an insult, imagine the Fastest and Greatest Winger to ever the play for the SuperFalcons.. @34 Mbachu was still bossing the flanks for Nigeria.
|
I hope NFF and the Coaches are keeping eyes on her.. This girl is a Special talent, on same page with the likes of Tabitha & Temwa Chawinga, Barbra Banda, Melchie Dumornay etc

𝗗𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗟𝗢𝗣𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗬:🚨📰 Florence Onyinye Okoli 🇳🇬 had an outstanding performance in Sandvikens IF's preseason friendly against Team Hudik, scoring 3️⃣ goals and providing 2️⃣ assists in their 10-2 win. Okoli, a Nigerian striker, has been impressive in her recent games, and this match was no exception. She's currently playing for Sandvikens IF in Sweden's Elitettan league. Date of birth: 26.08.2003 Age: 22 Height: 1,71 Nationality: Nigeria 🇳🇬 Position: Striker/Centre Forward Foot: Both Current Club: Sandvikens IF, Elitettan (Sweden 🇸🇪) Florence Onyinye Okoli is a Nigerian footballer who plays as a striker for Sandvikens IF in Sweden's Elitettan league. Born on August 26, 2003, the 22-year-old has been making waves with her impressive skills on the field. She previously played for IFK Värnamo, where she scored 18 goals in 16 games, making her the top scorer in the team. Okoli's talent didn't go unnoticed, and she was recently signed by Sandvikens IF on a two-year contract. Her coach, Niclas Kollgård, praised her as a "strong, mobile, and very goal-hungry striker" who fits perfectly with the team's identity. Florence is widely regarded as one of the hottest strikers in the Swedish League and is considered by many to be one of the greatest centre-forwards of her generation in the nearest future. An accurate and efficient finisher with her head and both feet, Florence is a prolific goalscorer, which has led her to be dubbed P11. A well-rounded forward, she is said to possess almost all the necessary qualities of a traditional number nine: height, strength, balance, pace, intelligent movement and proficiency with both feet. Although she primarily operates as a goal-poacher in the penalty area, due to her positional sense, ability to shoot first time, strength in the air, and powerful shot with either foot, her excellent technical skills, quick feet, proficient dribbling, vision, and physique also enable her to hold up the ball with her back to goal and either bring her teammates into play, or win fouls for her team in useful positions. Despite often functioning as a lone-centre forward or as an out-and-out striker, she has also stood out for her work-rate and defensive contribution off the ball, and is capable of dropping into deeper roles on the pitch, in order to create space for teammates with her movement, or surprise defenders by making late and sudden attacking runs into the area. She’s quick, mobile, hard-working and tactical player, with good technique and an eye for goal, Florence is predominantly known for her ability to use both her pace and flair on the ball to beat opponents, and create scoring opportunities for herself or her teammates.

BascoVanVeli:Problem dey oh Uchenna Kanu, Chioma Okafor are two forwards that’s supposed to be in the team but again who will Madugu drop for them to come?? Kanu remains the most complete SuperFalcons Striker but again she hasn’t really lived up to the standard expected as she was full of talent right from U17– U20 before going to college.. |
AkinDS:Just returned from a knock but again she should have been available for selection if truly Madugu wanted to have her in the squad.. Even the way Everton posted her in their page is something to talk about. |
TheSuperNerd:Osinachi Ohale isn’t the Ohale we used to know as her ability have dropped down a bit. Just that her experience is still very much needed. For Shukurat to break it she have to put in a 💯 top notch performance and Coach still need to be ready to take the risk of Benching Ohale. But right she’s ahead of Okeke at CM.. 1• Shukurat Oladipo 🇮🇹 (21yrs) 2• Chidinma Okeke 🇲🇽 (25yrs) 3• Maureen Umeugochukwu 🇫🇷 (24yrs) 4• Sikiratu Isah 🇬🇷 (28yrs)
|
Why didn’t Madugu pick Taiwo Afolabi this time around?? When you have the Luxury of Midfielders like 1• Regina Otu ( Fenerbahçe 🇹🇷) 2• Favour Emmanuel (Lokomotive Moscow🇷🇺) 3• Elisha Sulola (Ofi Crete Women FC 🇬🇷) 4• Suliat Abideen (ABB Fomget 🇹🇷) to pick from.
|
I hope NFF don add one Solid Assistant Coach join them wha sabi read game and also analyze opponents..! Morocco, Cote’d’ivoire and Algeria have world class Coaches but lack the Players to execute... Ghana and South Africa are well Coached too Nigeria 🇳🇬 have quality players but not Strong enough Coaching Crew.. I bet you if the Coaches of Morocco, Cote’d’ivoire or Algeria handles the SuperFalcons we would see better results as they’re French league & cup, Champions League and World Cup winning Coaches.. |
Schemerkhiz:Drop at least 3 players from here.. ➖One among the Homebased goalkeepers ➖One or two among Glory Ogbonna, Chidinma Okeke and Sikiratu Isah. ➖One of or the two of them Ngozi Okobi and Precious Christopher Asisat Oshoala, Toni Payne, Chioma Okafor or Uchenna Kanu can come in.. Imagine having Uchenna Kanu, Babajide and Ihezuo in the squad when they usually play from the Left Wing as primary position.. Monday Gift and Chioma Okafor can also play from there. Tough task for Madugu and Ann.. |
PDPGuy:If i have the opportunity Chioma Okafor will be there but again Asisat Oshoala is a must pick oh, even though she will mostly play a minor part on the field. I’m speaking from inward thinking.. What if you later see Aunty Franny name? Asisat Oshoala Rasheedat Ajibade Esther Okoronkwo Chiwendu Ihezuo Ijamilusi Folashade Rinsola Babajide Monday Gift Joy Omewa Chioma Okafor Uchenna Kanu.. Thank goodness CAF allows 25 players for the WAFCON but Problem Dey oh, 7-8 forwards |
TheSuperNerd:Kanu making a case for a spot in the final roster.. That nagging knee Injury have been a major problem for her I must say, The most complete forward the SuperFalcons have in recent years but didn’t live up to expectations…! |
Schemerkhiz:Some Possible dropping and those that might come in for the WAFCON. One goalkeeper must surely be dropped and Oshoala is a sure banker for that spot. Fatima Oloko ➖ Asisat Oshoala Glory Ogbonna ➖ Chioma Okafor Precious Christopher ➖ Toni Payne Can’t make a case for Nicole Payne who hasn’t played competitive football since her ACL just like Okobi.. Rofiat Imuran, since the arrival of the Spanish Coach she has been dropped to the bench for the England girl who just got called up by Sarina and Spanish girl Lucia Corrale from Barcelona.. Imagine LCL having 3 good players fighting for one spot. |
Schemerkhiz:➖Right Wing Rasheedat Ajibade Folashade Ijamilusi ➖Left Wing Rinsola Babajide Chinwendu Ihezuo ➖ Center Forward Esther Okoronkwo Monday Gift Joy Omewa Gift and Esther can also play in all positions upfront , Ihezuo as a Center Forward as well. Asisat Oshoala and Chioma Okafor will likely return especially Oshoala with 25players going to the WAFCON. |
Would love to see the trio of Rinsola Babajide, Esther Okoronkwo and Rasheedat Ajibade upfront.. But again Esther Okoronkwo isn’t a Traditional "Target Woman/Poacher", she plays like a false 9 and those forwards who love to involve in play, drift wide and make things happen instead of doing the main job of scoring goals.. One reason I’m clamoring for a typical no.9 and I don’t think Joy Omewa who’s that type is a starter yet.. |
Legendary Canadian midfielder Desiree Scott celebrates Ngozi Okobi's recall to the Super Falcons, having previously been club mates at Ottawa Rapids in Canada, before Scott's retirement at the end of last season.
|
My sole disappointment is the omission of Chioma Okafor's name from the list. She is an exceptional player with a unique combination of pace, strength, and skills that the SuperFalcons lack, unlike Malawi and Zambia. |
Schemerkhiz:I share the same views on Nicole Payne, who is competing at a high level in one of the world's strongest leagues and has returned from a long term injury. I would have prioritized her selection over the two defenders based in Israel 🇮🇱, considering the relatively weaker nature of their league. Nicole Payne can play on both side as a Fullback while we already have Chidinma Okeke and Shukurat Oladipo as backup's for Ohale and Demehin at CB as well as alternate Right/Left Backs |
Jojodjo:As a fan of Ngozi Okobi, I have mixed feelings about her call-up, primarily due to her insufficient game time at the club level. However, considering Tony Payne's current injury, I will interpret this as a strategic decision, given her extensive experience in midfield and as a player, which will likely benefit the team. Additionally, it is beneficial to have an active player who is a mother on the team, similar to what other European and American countries do to support their players who continue to compete at a high level. In terms of age, the Okobi case differs from Onome Ebi's as Onome was already 40+ and without a club at the time, whereas Ngozi Okobi remains active, training regularly with her top-tier club. If Okobi weren't proficient, her club would likely have terminated her contract by the end of last season.

daveP:As how? Rasheedat Ajibade remains the skipper, even the captain band was to go to another based on seniority in the team then Ohale is the rightful one before Okobi, Franny, Oshoala and then Ayinde. |
ekehopp2:List is pretty Solid… My only complaint is Chioma Okafor and that Mojisola Ayodele 🧤 Nicole Payne just returned from ACL so no wahala.. Toni Payne is injured…! 🤕 But be rest assured that Asisat Oshoala will return for the WAFCON and i hope Chioma Okafor does too |

I wonder how we no longer talk about this small but mighty player… Arguably one of the best 1-V-1 Winger Nigeria have…! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNdi3uagyHI?feature=shared I’m not a fan of small players but i must say she’s a go to player for me..! As she can cause havoc to any stubborn defense, I think you guys should watch more of Fenerbahce games to see more! |
