Super Falcons Amp Up Intensity Ahead of Rematch with Senegal
The Super Falcons have adopted a sharper game plan ahead of Monday’s friendly rematch against Senegal’s Lionesses at the Remo Stars Sports Complex. Head Coach Justine Madugu says his 10-time African champions will take the initiative from kickoff after a closely contested 2-1 victory in Ikenne-Remo on Friday. Asisat Oshoala converted a first-half penalty and Toni Payne added a second before Senegal pulled one back late on. The Falcons hold a strong qualifying record, having beaten Senegal 3-1 on aggregate in their 2016 WAFCON qualifier. Looking ahead to the Women Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco (July 25–August 16), Nigeria are drawn in Group C with Egypt, Zambia and Malawi. Senegal face hosts Morocco, Algeria and Kenya in Group A. The top four teams will secure direct World Cup berths, while the fifth-placed side enters an intercontinental playoff.
