The Super Falcons have sent a strong message ahead of the upcoming Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) by beating rivals Cameroon on their own home turf.
The 3-1 victory serves as a perfect boost as the team prepares for the continental tournament in Morocco later this month.
Nigeria's goals came from three different stars—Ihezuo, Babajide, and Alozie—proving that the team has multiple ways to find the back of the net.
Captain Rasheedat Ajibade led the team with energy, providing the final cross that led to the third goal and ensured Cameroon had no chance of a comeback.
After a narrow loss on Saturday, Coach Madugu successfully rotated the squad, proving that the Super Falcons have great depth in their roster.
Both teams are using these matches to get ready for WAFCON, which kicks off in Morocco on March 17. This win gives Nigeria the momentum they need heading into the tournament.
