Former Super Falcons head coach, Randy Waldrum, has said the Nigerian team can win the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).
The American tactician made this known recently during an interview with Eagles Tracker.
Nigeria are among the 12 teams that will compete for the WAFCON title in Morocco next month.
Waldrum was in charge when the nine-time champions finished fourth at the last edition of the competition, which was also hosted by Morocco.

However, his former assistant, Justine Madugu, is currently in charge of the team and has selected 13 players from the squad his former boss took to Morocco in 2022.
Speaking ahead of the competition, Waldrum said he believes the Super Falcons have what it takes to win a 10th title at the WAFCON 2024 finals.
He went on to add that some of the players who featured at the last Olympics and World Cup will add more quality to the team.
Asked if the Super Falcons can win the tournament, he said, “I think the players are good enough on their own that they can win it. I think there’s enough talent there based off what was built from the World Cup and the Olympics. Those players will find a way to get the result because they’re hungry to go regain the title.”
