OSHOALA, JENNIFER CAN’T MAKE FALCONS’ MATCH

Super Falcons forward, Asisat Oshoala and midfielder Jennifer Echegini voluntarily opted out of the Super Falcons’ squad for 2024 Women AFCON final qualifying fixture against Cape Verde in Abuja on Thursday.

NFF’s Assistant Director (Technical), Abdulrafiu Yusuf, said the two players had been sent their flight tickets to travel to Nigeria a whole week before they announced on Saturday that they would be unable to join the squad.

“We were surprised that they had the flight tickets for so long and did not say anything, only for them to send different messages on Saturday that they would be unable to make the trip. However, Coach Madugu has moved swiftly to call up replacements for them.”
