Nigeria, defending champions, suffered a surprise loss in their opening match on Tuesday. Temwa Chawinga scored in the 73rd minute, while her sister Tabitha Chawinga added a second six minutes later for WAFCON debutants Malawi.

I agree, they need to tighten the basics, stay disciplined, and approach each remaining game with more focus.

A 3-2 loss is painful for defending champions, but Ekpo's call to learn quickly sounds fair with the knockout stage still within reach.

Calling it a shock defeat is understandable, yet the bigger issue is whether Nigeria can respond consistently rather than dwell on one result.

The team should review where the match slipped away, tighten defensive concentration, and approach the next game as a must-win opportunity.
