will be awesome if it happens. It’s high time politicians leave the sports sector entirely for pple who re well experienced in that field

Ex internationals like olofinjana, emenalo, oliseh, kanu, tijani, eguavoen etc should be the ones manning positions in the nff not politicians who know nothing with regards to that sector

Exactly

Playing South Africa away is like playing at home. Good pitches! The easiest draw we could ever get. Easy qualification!
Another advantage we will get playing South Africa for the Nigerian viewers is quality TV viewing

Onyi Echegini is arguably my favorite since Okobi isn’t in the Squad… Again we all must also take note that the whole of Nigeria, Africa and the World at large are really waiting to see what she has to especially with the dropping of Ngozi Okobi.. I just pray she doesn’t disappoint because with this kind of Opportunity she might hold on to that AM position for long if she delivers..

Imagine Christy Ucheibe 22yrs, Onyi Echegini 22yrs.. I’m still waiting on a Central Midfielder of same age with them to step into the show soon.
NFF must invest in the youthful players and bring them on. Players like Nicole Payne, Peace Efih, Flourish Sebastian, Esther Onyenezide, Ajakaiye etc should all be drafted into the Super Falcons after this world cup no matter the outcome

NFF Reacts To Randy Waldrum’s Bombshell Interview

NFF Reacts To Randy Waldrum’s Bombshell Interview
The director of communication of the NFF, Ademola Olajire gave FA’s position on Waldrum’s insistence of lack of support and internal sabotage.
“We have to first ask when the European season ended. The man wanted a two-week camping for only home-based professionals (whom he already gave very little consideration in his provisional list).
“Like two weeks ago, he released his final list of 23, meaning there was absolutely no need for any camping for home-based again except to simply waste resources.
“Instead of admitting his glaring deficiencies, he’s there shooting his mouth off.
“He knows he will not have Rasheedat Ajibade and Halimatu Ayinde (two key players) for the opening match against Canada, yet he left out Ngozi Okobi and Regina Otu from the squad!
“The NFF felt it would make more sense for the 23 to go straight to Australia and camp for 15/16 days to acclimatize to the weather and conditions.
“The NFF wanted him to groom a home-based goal tender like Chiamaka Nnadozie was groomed. Instead, he kept bringing Yewande Balogun (who actually started as a goalkeeper coach!) all the time without consideration for a home girl. The same lady has only kept goal in one friendly match in over 2 years (and only because Chiamaka was badly injured in a friendly in Mexico earlier this year).
“His outbursts are nothing but an after-thought. He’s talking only 3 days to the team’s departure to the World Cup.”

With all these allegations and counter allegations going on between NFF & Randy coupled with no friendlies or preparation plans for the World cup, if Super Falcons qualify from that group, then it will be a miracle.

I don't even know what to believe on this thread anymore because NEPA no gree me watch this match. Some folks here think the keeper was good because he saved 2 goal bound opportunities from the Sierra Leoneans while others think he was poor. Between Iwobi and Aribo, please who performed better?

This is the part where @The Supernerd should come in with his analysis of individual performance.

Another reason why I sincerely have reservations about Okobi. I've said it over and again here, if I were Waldrum, the last time Okobi will play for me was when she went on that live and made a mess of her entire team.

Just hours after the world cup list is released she's reacting like this?

Don't get me wrong, I think she has a right to her reactions and rumours has it that until a few days ago her name was on the list, but a team player will probably wait till the end of the competition, and even at that be circumspect with her speech.

The height of it for me was when she said to the entire world that Randy didn't know anything, like your coach? Whatever your reservations are you should never say that about your boss, much more to the entire world.
That was immature & unprofessional of her

Super Falcons list finally out.
I prefer Nicole Payne to Glory Ogbonna.
But overall the list is tight and right.
I'm satisfied.
I hope they will all bring their A-game

well a 6'3 defender who is very imposing on the goal and has a crack for header as he scored 8 goals in 36 apps,well he rejected rohr terribly at first for the 2018 world cup but changed his mind being he is 25 and Germany doesn't need him,would be an upgrade on our center back
He would perfectly replace Ekong

Other African countries like South Africa, Zambia & Morocco are fine tuning their preparations for the World cup with friendlies but we are still stock with which player to include in our provisional list because of a home based player that NFF officials insist must be included because of FIFAs monetary bonus. I don't see Nigeria scaling beyond first round to be frank. If Waldrum finally leaves, its over for Nigerian women football. I heard that he has been paid his 7 out of 14 months salary.

The Super Eagles will clash with Sierra Leone in their 5th game of the group A of the qualifications on the 18th of this month.

Jose included four home base players in his list, it is understood that the Portuguese is a fan of the NPFL, and he has been following up with the ongoing NPFL Super Six play off Championship in Lagos.

Invited players for the game:

Goalkeepers: Adebayo Adeleye (Hapoel Jerusalem, Israel); Victor Sochima (Rivers United); Olorunleke Ojo (Enyimba FC)

It seems NFF will announce Bosso as U23 Eagles and CHAN Eagles coach to replace Salisu when the team returns from Argentina. He might even be added to the SE coaches setup. Good for him.

75% chance that we are meeting Argentina.
My brother. That game go dey ooo.
But if a 3rd placed team qualifies from Group C we might avoid Argentina & play USA ooo. For that to happen, Uruguay must beat Tunisia silly by 4-0 tomorrow so that Tunisia will have (-2) as goal difference and lose out while Japan qualifies with their (-1) goal difference. I hate using calculators to solve these kinds of cases
