I can see the Super Falcon winning the cup.
Oga Godstate u no see well oo…this gals will not win a single match…I said it before the tourny started…
Yes you’re right mutum.l don’t see these set of players doing anything significant. These set of players are crap. They couldn’t position themselves when they’re passing the ball. They couldn’t string 2 to 3 passes before the south Africans dispossessed them. They didn’t understand themselves well enough. Honestly, I really don’t see this team doing well in this tournament. The highest they can go is probably second round… That’s just my candid opinion
I support Godsate, i still believe that the Falcons will win this cup.
Let them first qualify for the knockout phase from the group before dreaming of winning the tournament!
Old ladies..
They have been dusted by banyana banyana almost in successive order and the team has not been able to raise their game, does it mean the handlers don’t know how to free the team from SA ladies, WHERE IS THE KNOW-HOW OF THE HANDLERS?
CAN SBD TELL THE HANLERS THAT OUR PRIDE IS AT STAKE.
Better bounce forward
