Super Falcons interim head coach Justin Madugu is confident his side will record another resounding victory against Cape Verde in their 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.
The nine-time African champions thrashed Cape Verde 5-0 in the first leg at the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja last week.
Cape Verde will need to score six goals without conceding to beat Nigeria to the 2024 WAFCON ticket.
Madugu however said his team want to do double over their hosts.

“We are not taking anything into chance with the blend of players that we have. We are not taking anything for granted. We are here to play and win irrespective of the position. We will try and impress so that they can get disgraced at home,” Madugu said in a short video posted on the team’s X handle.
“No matter how great your team is, you will always notice few areas you can improve on. We have noticed some few areas we feel they can work harder so that they will perfect at least what we have noticed either offensively or defensively.”
The gaffer also reflected on the harsh weather condition in Praia.
“We are not expecting that to be a factor. However, in the course of the game, we really know what to do to address the weather situation. We know how to play against the wind,”he added.
The encounter slated for Estadio Nacional de Capo Verde will kick-off at 6pm Nigeria time.

Very unprofessional, oga. Don’t get too cocky, you’ve not got the job yet. WAFCON will not be made up of the likes of Cape Verde and Sao Tome.
