Meanwhile, Chief coach, Randy Waldrum had said the Nigerian Super Falcons will approach the second leg fixture of the AWCON qualifier match against the Lady Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire differently.

Waldrum, the Super Falcons chief coach made this known at a press conference on Friday, following the impressive win in the first leg match of their final round fixture in the 2022 AWCON qualifiers.

In the first leg, the Ivorian ladies showed physical strength, and tried to overpower the Super Falcons. However, the Nigerian ladies showed courage and won the match by two (2) goals from debutant Ifeoma Onumonu in a match that saw Ashleigh Plumptre also debut for her grandparent nation.

Following the nature of the first leg, Waldrum has said the second leg would be approached differently and that the Super Falcons will go for the win.

“We understand what they want to do. They want to be physical; they want to be fouled; they want to disrupt the game; they want to roll around; they want to disrupt what we do. We understand that.

I think the thing we will do, technically, we will just prepare our players not to let that stuff affect them. We will go to their place on the front foot. We can’t go in there and sit back.

“We understand if we go there and get a goal, we will make things very difficult for them. We will go after the win in Ivory Coast,” Waldrum said.
