Oshoala Vows to Help Super Falcons Win WAFCON Title
Asisat Oshoala says she’s ready to help the Super Falcons reclaim their crown at the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON). The Bay FC striker is set for her fifth appearance at the tournament, which will take place in Morocco. The 30-year-old already has three WAFCON titles to her name.
At the last edition, also held in Morocco, Oshoala only featured briefly due to injury as South Africa took the title from Nigeria. But now, after over a year away from the squad, she’s back and eager to make an impact.
Speaking to NFF TV, Oshoala shared her excitement about being part of the team again. “Scoring goals is what I love,” she said. “It’s been a while since I played with the national team because of personal things going on in my life. But anytime I’m here, I give my all to help the team get maximum points in every game.”
The Super Falcons will kick off their WAFCON 2024 campaign against Tunisia on Sunday in Casablanca. The tournament begins on Saturday, July 5, with hosts Morocco facing Zambia in Rabat, and it will run until July 26.
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.
“He brings a different quality and probably a different profile to the midfield players we have.
“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”
Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta, after their last match, shares an update on the injured team members after their last match.
He shared an update on Saka and stated that he is doing better after going through a hip injury. “His hip is improving a lot. Hopefully, he’ll be ready soon.”
He added about the other team members: “Martin is getting better and will be back in a few days, and Jurrien is fit for the weekend.”
Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
