FORGET PARIS OLYMPICS, FOCUS ON 2025 WAFCON – EKPO TELLS SUPER FALCONS
Former Nigerian international, Friday Ekpo, has urged the Super Falcons to focus on the 2025 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations after the team’s exit from the Paris Olympic women’s football event.
Recall that Nigeria lost their final group C game against Japan on Wednesday, to finish the tournament without a win. The team had first lost to Brazil and Spain, respectively.
Reacting after Nigeria’s exit, Ekpo, stated that the Super Falcons should forget about the disappointment of the Paris Olympics and focus on the 2025 WAFCON.
“After this tournament, I think the team needs better preparation and introduction of young players in the Super Falcons.
“We should accept the reality that the team is out of the Olympic Games and focus on helping have a better showing at the 2025 wafcon.”
“The players must come home with their heads held high.”
