Ahead of the much anticipated World Cup qualifiers between the Super Falcons of Nigeria and Ladies Elephants of Cote d’ Ivoire, the recently crowned player of the tournament, Achifula Harmony has expressed desire to watch Super Falcons dispatching Ladies Elephants of Cote D’Ivoire in the final round qualifiers coming up in Abuja and Abidjan.
The football Queen as Harmony is fondly called started this when asked to snick her neck between the two rivals.
“It hurts not to see Nigeria at the major tournaments like World Cup. The wound inflicted by the last Olympics miss is still fresh and we cannot afford to compound the pains. I will be the happiest person to watch our big sisters wearing green white green at the World Cup. In fact, I will personally celebrate the World Cup ticket with my friends God’s willing” The Las enthusiastically submitted.
A narrow 2-1 aggregate win over Ghana’s Black Queens by nine-time AWCON holders saw the Super Falcons to this stage, where they face high-scoring Lady Elephants who mauled their counterparts from the Niger Republic 20-0 on aggregate in the previous round.
The Lady Elephants contingent arrived in Nigeria on Monday night where they billed to face Nigeria at MKO Abiola Stadium with the final match to 2022 FIFA Women’s World Cup to be co-hosted by Australia and New Zealand holds in Abidjan.
It would be recalled that the Ivorians stopped Nigerians from the race to the 2020 Olympics and all eyes would be in Abuja this Friday by 4 pm.
