The Super Falcons’ second match of the ongoing FIFA World Cup group stage will be against co-host Australia. The team led by Randy Waldrum will be attempting to pull off one of the biggest upsets in the tournament with a victory. This article provides you with the most recent news from the Nigerian women’s team camp as we eagerly anticipate this game.
* Here are 2 Nigerian Stars Who Are Set To Return For This Crucial Game:
1. Rasheedat Ajibade
The Super Falcons attacker is expected to return for this crucial match. Recall that she was given a two-match ban after being sent off in the Super Falcons’ semi-final loss to hosts Morocco in the 2022 Africa Women’s Cup of Nations. Well, FIFA has now cleared her to play in the match against Australia on Thursday. This is obviously good news for Randy.
2. Halimat Ayinde
Halimat was also unavailable for the game against Canada due to a red card she received in Morocco’s semi-final loss at the 2022 Africa Women’s Cup of Nations. She, like Rasheedat, has now been cleared by FIFA to participate in this game.
* Here Are The Nigerian Stars Who Will Not Be Available For This Game:
1. Deborah Abiodun
Deborah will not be available for this game as she was sent off in added time during their 0-0 draw with Canada. The 19-year-old, dubbed “Nigerian Kante” after her impressive performance against Canada, has been suspended for one match and will only return for Randy Waldrum’s team’s final group game against debutants Republic of Ireland. The return of Ayinde will undoubtedly relieve Randy’s search for a replacement.
