The land is crying R.I.P to Nigeria Soccer!
The last time you met it was 3 to 1 in their favour and today, it is 3 to 0. Oh! Dear, take heart angels, you’ve got another chance to win. Put this behind you and do us proud in your next match. Good luck dearies.
Nigeria Female football is really suffering, how can the beat Us 3-0.
Nigeria again? This must be a new one. ‘never heard of CAF WCL. Is it an inuagura competition or something?
It was founded last year.
Just last year? Then nothing there.
You wonder! The moment it is bad news, good Nigerians begin to trend screamingly… Some girls game.
No be the same set of home-based players wey everybody dey shout say make dem take over from the ageing Super Falcons be this. Na wa ooo, Nigerian soccer is in comatose. State of emergency needed ASAP
From I saw in clips, the girls didn’t do badly but was just unfortunate the first goal came and they were demorize, must be their first time in such tournament. Pick yourselves up and bounce back. In a game of football, you either win or loss but it is not the end of it.
If it was the match I watched, then the Nigerian girls were really poor. The Moroccans were by far more mature, better and confident in everything they did on the field of play. There was nothing interesting in the Nigerian team by far. Poor decision making. Confused patterned of play. Poor coaching and all. Of Rivers Angels were actually the champions of the Nigerian female league, then that was a very awkward advertisement for the entire league here. What really to Nigerian in general? It’s really pathetic to see things go down the drain these days. God help us.
Oseodion, any stats?
LMAO leave that Spam.
The truth is you cannot give what you do not have; Also if you fail to plan, you plan to fail, that is the summary of the result of yesterdays match. Actually, the coach had nothing to offer, it is more alarming that this same coach was named to scout for the Falcons a. now on the other point raised, what is really the investment of the NFF and soccer club owners in female football other than buy football boots, sell players to foreign clubs and play league matches that are not well organized. the truth is football has gone way beyond the mediocrity we practice here. interestingly, I hope the NFF will appreciate what Walandrun and our “ageing girls” are doing. The truth here is at the base of the pyramid of development is that our coaches needs to go for trainings on modern football tactical approches and management. or else we are just going to huff and puff and loose matches
Hm! It is malicious, stop it.
River Angela’s loss to AS Far women is another sure opportunity to do the hatchet job. Click the link below.

We covertly refused to believe NFF is developing sporting activities.
