Nigeria’s First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, has urged the Super Falcons to give their best as they face Morocco’s Atlas Lionesses in the final clash of the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations.
The much-anticipated final will take place today (Saturday) at the Olympic Stadium in Rabat.
Led by head coach Justine Madugu, the Nigerian team is just one match away from claiming an unprecedented 10th WAFCON title.
In a short video shared on the Super Falcons’ official X account, Tinubu encouraged the team to bring pride to the country.
“My beautiful and lovely Super Falcons, I congratulate you and the officials for the qualification for the final of the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations,” Tinubu stated.
“I commend your team spirit, determination, and professionalism demonstrated in all your matches so far. You are shining examples to girls in Nigeria and Africa.
“As you step out for the final match, I pray God crowns your efforts with resounding victory. Make us proud, our worthy ambassadors and champions. Nigerians and I are waiting to receive you with a trophy in your hands.”
The Falcons kicked off their campaign with victories over Tunisia and Botswana, followed by a draw with Algeria in their last group fixture.
In the quarter-finals, they thrashed Zambia’s Copper Queens 5-0, then edged out South Africa’s Banyana Banyana with a 2-1 win in the semi-final.
So far in the tournament, Nigeria has netted 11 goals and allowed just one.
