The Super Falcons, still on a high
after reclaiming their African title
from Equatorial Guinea this
month, were handed an 8-0
pasting by the world champions.
Nigeria coach Uche Eucharia
recalled two-time African Player
of the Year Cynthia Uwak to the
squad, but opted to start with a
first eleven from the African
Women Championship team.
It did not seem to matter, as they
were down a goal within the
opening five minutes.
Things went rapidly down from
there, and matters were not
helped by the atrocious freezing
conditions and slippery pitch.
Within 20 minutes, the deficit
had climbed to 4-0, and the hosts
were cruising comfortably as
they finished the first half with 5-0 advantage.
Three more goals followed in the
second period, leaving the
African champions with
questions to answer ahead of
next year's World Cup.
