It is a shame that NFF didn’t take case up with the match against Morocco concerning the use of Lasser lights on super falcons during the match.
I expect NFF to take this up with caf and if caf do nothing about the complaint NFF shpul write FIFA on the matter. I’m so surprise that NFF keep quiet on the matter even till now.
God bless you girls.
To me you are still the best in Africa.
God bless Nigeria.
Not surprised that it’s just 1 hour training,if it’s going to be 1 hour then it’s got to have 2 to 3 sessions,but like I said I’m not surprised because the players are being owed by a clueless NFF.
