The coach of the Super Falcons of Nigeria, Randy Waldrum, is confident that the female national team of Nigeria will defeat Bayana Bayana in the second leg of the Paris 2024 Olympics qualifier, which will be played on Tuesday in Pretoria.
Waldrum, who expressed his confidence about the match’s positive outcome during an interview with NFF TV, said that the Falcons will approach the game the same way they approached the first leg played at the Monshood Abiola Stadium in Abuja.
The coach said that his players know the importance of claiming the Olympics ticket after a 16-year absence and will do the needful in the reverse fixture at the Lotfus Versfeld Stadium, Pretoria.
