Over to you @deo for more details and in-depth analysis of the match
We’re really behind in preparations,what a pity,sucks to be in this mess.Just too bad!
This is more like a kick about than it’s a match.We should have done with preparations at this stage and should have played high profile friendlies against participants I mean against formidable opponents just like the game between Canada and England,this are the kind of friendlies to keep us fit as a flea.
Our first game is fast approaching on the 21st which is a few days to our first game and as it looks we may not play another tune up game or should I say a high profile friendly which the falcons require for this kind of global tournament.
The country with a thousand jerseys, a new one every 2 months. Nike and NFF are just confused. Are we really dealing with Nike USA, abi Nike Abulegba branch? What is this forest green jersey with light olive leaves now?
You got that right
Good one from the ladies, I wish they will be able to replicate this score line against Canada and other teams at the world cup
