Super Falcons Head Coach, Randy Waldrum is confident his side will make it to the final of the WAFCON tournament and eventually win their tenth title.

Host nation, Morocco will battle it out with Super Falcons for a place in the final on Monday night.

“Coming into the WAFCON, our goal was to qualify for the World Cup and we have done that. Now, we have turned our focus on winning our 10th title and we want to do exactly that.

After the quarterfinal, we are well-rested and trying to remain focused on our next objective. We have qualified for the World Cup and now our next target is to make it to the final and win the WAFCON 2022.”

“Nigeria is truly a strong team – the strongest in Africa. They always qualify for the World Cup. We have studied them and know their strength and I can say that in the semifinal, everything is possible. We need to do our best.

“We know that they are strong. They are the strongest for many years. We know this, however, we are going to do our best in this game. We know who we are facing. It is up to us,” Pedros added.
