PARIS 2024: SUPER FALCONS GAVE EVERYTHING AGAINST BRAZIL – IKPEBA
Former Nigeria international, Victor Ikpeba has heaped plaudits on the Super Falcons despite the team’s defeat to Brazil.
Gabi Nunez’s first half goal separated both teams on the night.
The Super Falcons put up a spirited display and were denied by Brazil goalkeeper Lorena thrice in the opening 25 minutes.
Ikpeba commended the players for giving everything against the Brazilians.
“You just must commend the girls, they gave everything, they played with their heart, with determination, with passion,” saluted 1997 African Footballer of the Year Ikpeba.
“They had their moments in the first half, but unfortunately they didn’t make the most of them.
They probably lacked the quality in attack, but they have everything to be proud of.
“The Super Eagles must learn from how they fight for each other.”
Randy Waldrum’s side will take on Spain in their second Group C game in Nantes on Sunday
