Despite losing 2-0 to the Super Falcons of Nigeria, Black Queens of Ghana Mercy Tagoe insist her players are more intelligent than the nine-time African champions.
First half goals from Uchenna Kanu gave the Falcons the win in the first round of the qualifiers played inside the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, Lagos.
Kanu nodded in Francisca Ordega’s well timed cross from the right before repeating it again this time from a corner.

And fielding questions from journalists Tagoe, a former Ghana player, explained why the Falcons emerged victorious.
“We played well, tactically we were very disciplined we came to play football unfortunately the Nigerians are stronger and tougher than we are. But when it comes to intelligence we are far ahead of them.
“When you are playing away game it’s not easy so we are going back to the drawing board to correct our mistakes.”
On whether there will be any changes in her team going into the return leg on Sunday, she said:”No, there wouldn’t be any changes in the team.”
The winner between the Falcons and Ghana over two legs will progress into the second round of the qualifiers.

Ghanaians never see anything good from Nigeria.
Hmmmmmmmmmmn!
Ewu gambia. Pls continue with your “intelligence ” until u fail to qualify, na that time ur eye go clear. Some people can be just so stupid. Simply say u lost to a good side, you are here talking nonsense.
Hmmmmn! intelligent indeed
Knowledge is power. They should have won if they’re actually intelligent
I wonder when Ghana have ever had an edge over super falcons?..we are talking of nine times African champions!!..haba madam , well let your intelligence take you to the finals , that is what matters at the end and rest assured that Falcons will still beat you guys at Accra sport stadium !!
They are far ahead of the Falcons when it comes to intelligence, that’s why they lost to the Falcons.
What a brilliant coach
all this coaches have a way to mismanage their utterances!!let us say they won and draw yesterday, she will say something else!!!!na so their intelligence is yet to win them the cup o. even equitorial guinea that won once has never said something like this against Nigeria!!!
Thank God Mercy didn’t say the referee supported my friends to beat the queens just as the bush animal from motor republic, savoy said Super Eagles were assisted by the referee(no12) to wipe his motor boys in cameroon. They never accept defeat, Africa ma bu ye.
That they’re stronger and tougher means they’re still more intelligent than your your players stupid woman.
