The Super Falcons under the guidance of Coach Justin Madugu are gearing up for the upcoming WAFCON championship in Morocco. Despite the high stakes and expectations surrounding the team, Coach Madugu remains unfazed and focused on leading Nigeria to their milestone tenth WAFCON title.
The Super Falcons, a dominant force in African women’s football with nine continental titles under their belt, arrived in Casablanca, Morocco, ahead of the 2024 WAFCON competition. The team will be facing tough competition in Group B, going up against Tunisia, Botswana, and Algeria at the Larbi Zaouli Stadium.
Their campaign kicks off on July 6 against Tunisia, and Coach Madugu has made it clear that their ultimate goal is to bring home the trophy. Despite the pressures and distractions that come with such a prestigious tournament, the team is determined to stay focused and achieve success.
For Coach Madugu, this competition holds special significance as an Indigenous coach representing not only himself but all Nigerian coaches. Success for the Super Falcons would not only mean another title but also pave the way for more opportunities for local coaches in the future.
With the team now in Morocco and undergoing final preparations, including a friendly match against Ghana, the players are ready to showcase their skills on the continental stage. A recent goalless draw against Portugal in a warm-up match has further fueled their determination to perform well in the upcoming tournament.
As the Super Falcons set their sights on their tenth WAFCON title, Coach Justin Madugu and his team are focused, determined, and ready to make Nigeria proud. Stay tuned for more updates as the competition unfolds.
