Tochukwu Oluehi, the goalkeeper of Nigeria’s female national team, has explained what the Super Falcons must do to defeat the Bayana Bayana of South Africa.
The goaltender, who opened up during an interview with ESPN, said that the Super Falcons must take the game to their opponents right from the blast of the first whistle.
Oluehi said that the Falcons just have to be aggressive in the game against the Bayana Bayana of South Africa, which will be played today, Friday, at the Monshood Abiola Stadium in Abuja.
She said that the Super Falcons have to be at their best and that everyone on the team must fight for each other so that Nigeria can eventually qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympics.

“We just have to be aggressive,” she said. “Take the bull by the horns, from the start to the finish. We have to be at our best. Everyone must fight for each other; everyone must help each other,” Oluehi told ESPN.
“We can’t relax and let them play. I remember at WAFCON in Morocco, what cost us against them was because we allowed them to play their game.
“It was in the second half that we stepped up our game, but by then it was too late for us to come back. We can’t let that happen again, so we have to take the fight to them.
“From the start to the end, we will hunt them so that they can feel our own heat and know that we really need this qualification.” The agile goalkeeper noted.
