Re: How Michelle Alozie ended up representing Nigeria
Wow accidental scouting uncovered a starter. I wonder who else showed up and became part of the team like her Esther Okoronkwo was also accidentally discovered at that same camp. Also Echiegini was discovered in a similar way during the Canada friendlies about a year later also due to visa issues r...

Re: How Michelle Alozie ended up representing Nigeria
I believe that was Nicole Payne's first game also. There was a defender named Okeke on the team who I thought was very good. Unfortunately, she scored an own goal in the game. I wonder what became of her. Wow accidental scouting uncovered a starter. I wonder who else showed up and became part of th...

Re: South Africa vs Nigeria Super Falcons Live Stream | Africa Olympic Qualifiers
Not impressed. They don't seem like they will do much at the Olympics. I prefer the days of naija coaches. Back then we won WAFCON regularly and spring a few surprises with the big ones except USA and Germany. But how can a team struggling with SA win WAFCON not to mention the international tournan...

Re: It is April 7th, the NFF still have not named a coach for the SE
They should name Finidi the coach. Appoint a solid backroom staff. They need to start preparing. Sout Africa will be coming to win in Nigeria. And it is doable. If the likes of Guinea Bissau can do. And the mighty Siera Leone can come back to tie a game 4-4 in NIgeria. South Africa will fancy their...

Re: CAMEROon VS NIGERIA
The team played better under the local coach. Plumptree didn't have a good game. Cameroon could have won the game. Did you watch the match? Don't mind that confused fellow. It's all about agenda for him. Is it not the same local coach that very nearly lost away to Ethiopia away in the last round? T...

Re: Super Falcons List for 2024 Olympic Qualifiers next week
They need to take this qualifier seriously. We barely beat Cameroon at the AFCON and it feels like Cameroon has gone to the last two Olympics tournaments. This current iteration of the Cameroon women's team won't inspire confidence in anybody. They barely made it to this stage (lost 2-0 away to Uga...

Re: Super Falcons List for 2024 Olympic Qualifiers next week
Good list, but… The lack of quality depth in the GK position is a potential pitfall. Worry is that if Chiamaka Nnadozie cops an injury or is otherwise unavailable, there’ll be a MASSIVE drop off in quality. Tochukwu Oluehi, while very experienced, is (having been watching several of our games in th...

Re: Leke Ojo
The guy keeps for Enyimba. He can’t be that bad. I think Perseiro didn’t want to throw him into the tournament in the middle of an intense match. If Nwanbili is out of the next match, they will prep him for the Angola game. That would be a better way of introducing him to the tournament. Uzoho look...

Re: Views from Others - Ugandans praise Iwobi, mock Song
I wouldn’t have played Ondoa if I was song. The guy has been on the receiving end of SE goals and was obviously nervous. He was in goal when Oliseh’s SE beat them 3-0 in a friendly in Belgium, 4-0 and 1-1, in the WCQs and 3-2 in the round of 16 at the 2019 AFCON. That’s 11 goals conceded in 4 match...

Re: WALDRUM SIGNS NEW FALCONS’ CONTRACT
I have mixed feelings about this. Waldrum’s last 10 games going into the last WWC read as follows: Played 10 Lost 8 Won 2 (against Costa Rica 🇨🇷 and Haiti 🇭🇹 ) That is an appalling record. What he has in the credit bank is that his knowledge of the American university football system led him to une...

Re: JOE ECHEGINI JOINS JUVENTUS!
This girl is one of the best players we have in the super falcons. I wonder why she's always played from the bench. She's a serious baller. Attacks, defends and scores goals too. Initially I was somehow confusing her with Esther Okoronkwo, who I don’t think is very good. But Echegini is a baller. :...

Re: Randy Waldrum: Could American stay on as boss of Nigeria women?
The new coach name is Magadu(sp). The Falcons have scored 12 goals and have only conceded 2 goals under his tenure. Give the guy the same support you gave Waldrum. And that is multiple friendlies and training camp. Ohenhen, you keep on spewing the goals scored as if it was something unusual. Do you...

Re: Nigeria 5-0 Cape Verde – Women’s AFCON qualifier
Qualified for WAFCON. There is no need to replace the coach. Let’s wait and see on this new coach. Beating Cape Verde women 2-1 is not necessary something to gloat about. Did you watch the last WAFCON? We have our new coach. The NFF need to support him with regular friendlies and etc. Did you watch...

Re: Nigeria 5-0 Cape Verde – Women’s AFCON qualifier
I’ve got to say, I’ve been very impressed with Deborah Abiodun in the midfield. I didn’t really appreciate the alarm when she was red-carded vs Canada at the WC, but now I understand. I suspect she was the one who kept Ngozi Okobi - another favorite of mine - out of the squad. I was first shocked, ...

Re: Just rewatched the game without tension...
Interesting I suspected as much. However as I outlined in my other thread. 1. Players as a whole lack focus, effort and concenteation needed to ensure results in these type of games. 2. Cohesion up front with the 422 is lacking what it needs to be. Build up play is decent until final third. 3. We n...

With a clear head this what I took from the game; We were not as bad as I originally thought watch it live : We played some good football but the lack of cohesion up front hurt us. Boniface & Awoniyi didn't understand each other but even at that we should have buried the chances that came. Lesot...
