PARIS 2024: SUPER FALCONS STRONGER NOW THAN BEFORE – WALDRUM
Super Falcons head coach, Randy Waldrum says his side are a lot better than they were at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
Waldrum’s side made it to the Round of 16 at the World Cup, impressing against big guns Canada, Australia and England.
The Super Falcons have lost only once since the second round defeat to Three Lionesses of England.
The West Africans beat arch rivals South Africa to secure a place at the Olympics.
They will face Brazil, Spain and Japan in the group stage in Paris.
Waldrum said his players are battle ready for the task ahead.
“I like what I have been seeing. We had a good time in Spain and since we arrived in France, it’s been fantastic and wonderful,” Waldrum told reporters.
“The players are ready to go. We are in better condition than we were a year ago.
“The team has continued to improve since the World Cup. Hopefully, we will see that when we face Brazil, a very good side.”
