Canada, also on four points, are second, Australia third and Republic of Ireland bottom without any point.
Reacting to the stunning win against Australia, the organiser of the English women’s topflight league wrote:“What a result! 👏.”
A draw against already eliminated Republic of Ireland will be enough for the Falcons to progress into the round of 16.

Why is it “shock win?” Shock Win for what? Win is a win. 3-1 before 3-2 is not shock win for me but “known win!” Nigeria just need draw to reach the round of 16. If “shock win(s)” can take the falcons to lifting the WWC so be it.
Don’t mind then
Just few weeks, I told those who cares to listen on this platform that the Super would not just make up the numbers but make a statement at this year’s women football soccer fiesta but nobody believed. I love to reemphasize here that anything is possible at this juncture only if the Super Falcons could simply believe in their talents capable of causing a major upset here and have their names cemented in the history book !
