Plumptre Says Super Falcons Are Fully Ready to Face Zambia in the WAFCON
Ashleigh Plumptre has made it clear that the Super Falcons are ready for a tough fight against Zambia’s Copper Queens in the upcoming Women’s Africa Cup of Nations quarter-final clash set for Friday in Casablanca.
Zambia head into the match as one of the tournament’s top-scoring teams, having netted six goals so far. Their forwards, Barbara Banda and Racheal Kundananji, have been standout performers, using their speed and strength to trouble defenses throughout the competition.
Despite the challenge ahead, Plumptre isn’t fazed. Speaking at a press conference, the Nigerian defender acknowledged the strength of Zambia’s attack but stressed that the Super Falcons are prepared to face the team as a whole, not just two players.
“We respect Zambia’s attacking quality, and we know they’ve got dangerous players,” she said. “But our game plan isn’t about shutting down individuals—it’s about being ready for everything they bring as a team.” Plumptre, who plays her club football with Al-Ittihad in Saudi Arabia, emphasized that the Falcons have studied their opponents well and are focused on reaching the semifinals.
Pep Guardiola reveals why he left Manchester City. It can be recalled that the manager recently left Man City, and now he has revealed his reason during an interaction with reporters.
He shared that he is running out of energy.
“I share the same feeling as when Jurgen Klopp left, I am running out of energy. I feel like I will not have the energy that is required for a game every three days, to fight for titles, being in front of the players every day.”
He then added that he believes the club should have a new manager with fresh energy to direct the team.
Football legend Paul Merson praises Mikel Arteta on his win this season and shares good luck to him in the Champions League against Paris Saint-Germain.
He praised the manager, saying that Arteta really pushed the club to the best and the win is well deserved.
“Congratulations to Arsenal once again. It is a well-deserved win after 22 years. We can’t wait to see the 30th of May and see if it’s a double win.”
Luis Enrique, manager of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), praised Arsenal F.C. and called them the best team in the world after their win in the Premier League.
He shared: “I believe they deserve to win the league — they have had an outstanding season.
“We have already faced this Arsenal team, so we are aware of their capabilities.
“Without the ball, they are the best team in the world, and with it, they can score frequently. This creates a remarkable combination for them.”
