We will not disappoint Nigerians, says Falcons captain

Nigeria women’s national team captain, Onome Ebi has expressed confidence that the Super Falcons will not disappoint Nigerians against Cameroon in tomorrow’s quarterfinals at the ongoing Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco.

Speaking ahead of the match, Onome, who is playing for FC Minsk in the Belarusian Premier League said they are up for the challenge.

She said they will not let Nigerians down just as they are ready to give their best to win the encounter and pick a World Cup ticket.

All four teams that make the semi-finals in the quarterfinals are guaranteed a place in the Women’s World in Australia & New Zealand next year.

She disclosed that “Of course, we know what to expect. The Cameroonians also want to go to the World Cup. But we have never missed the World Cup and we won’t start now. Our eyes are fully focused on Australia & New Zealand, and then we can start talking about the trophy.”
