Good news and well done completesports for the news about our girls.
How it should be girls.
Na wa ooo. These ladies are ruthless. Anybody they jam, na wotowoto. Niger first collected 7, now Togo don carry 6. 13 goals scored in 2 matches, no goal conceded.
Winning Wafu is like playing qualifiers but I look into these matches picking out other analysis where we can improve. Yes good results but I also know that a lot of chances went begging and Ajankaye who should be scoring for fun as the top9 must improve her shooting because when it’s time for World Cup she’ll be up against world class defenders and Goalies, I’m saying this because these were her problems at the last junior World Cup she played where she couldn’t get a goal and let the team down, other than that congratulations to the team and Christopher Danjuma for his consistent solid team play.
Good play from the girls, it’s good that most of them graduated from u17 and I believe this championship will give the girls confidence and exposure ahead of the next u20 qualifiers. They should go for the cup and I wish them all the best.
