PARIS 2024 QUALIFIER: SANUSI RALLIES SUPPORT FOR SUPER FALCONS AHEAD OF BANYANA MATCH
Secretary General of the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, Mohammed Sanusi has implored Nigerians based in Abuja and its environs to troop out in large numbers to support the Super Falcons.
The Super Falcons will take on the Banyana Banyana of South Africa in the first leg of their 2024 Olympic Games qualifier at the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja, on Friday.
Sanusi stated that the former African champions need the support of all soccer loving Nigerians to achieve victory in the game.
“The NFF is calling on Nigerians from all over the Federal Capital Territory and the neighbouring States, and indeed from all over Nigeria, to come out in their tens of thousands to cheer the Super Falcons to victory in the match against South Africa,” Sanusi told thenff.com.
“This is a big match by all standards. We are specially appealing to our people to come en masse and support the Super Falcons. It is important for us to get a big win here in order to be in good stead before flying to South Africa. A handsome win here will bolster our ladies with the confidence and mentality to overcome in Pretoria.”
Nigeria has not participated in the Women’s Olympic Football Tournament since 2008, when the Falcons lost all three matches in the group phase in China.
