Against all odds, you prove many doubters wrong by putting up a commanding performance to beat group favorite. We are solidly behind you and i pray you re-enact your predecessor’s form that saw them qualify for the final twice. Bravo!!!
Congratulations girl! Keep working hard.
These Nigerian girls are marvelous and very delightful to watch. They are strong and very determined in their characters. Kudos to the coach. To beat the “Communist North Koreans” is a task that must be done. Amen? Amen.
