Super Falcons midfield power horse, Ngozi Okobi-Okeoghene has revealed that Nigeria is not concerned about the overwhelming numbers of Morocco fans ahead of today’s semi-final as the team will go out and fight till the end.
The Atlas Lionesses who have won all their four games in the tournament so far will face a very experienced team that knows a thing or two about reaching the final when they play Randy Waldrum’s girls tonight.
Monday’s clash is a record 12th time Nigeria will be featuring in the semifinals of the WAFCON and they have won nine times falling short only in 2008 and 2012.
“We have played against teams playing at home and we know how to manage games like this. We do not care about how many people are in the stadium. We shall come into this game with the sole purpose of winning and going to the final,” Ngozi told CAF online.
Nigeria defeated Cameroon 1-0 in 2016 final in front of over 42,000 fans inside the Ahmadu Ahidjo Stadium and according to Ngozi, that experience will come in handy. The Sweden-based midfield genius is hoping to play in her fifth WAFCON final, but she and her team will have to overcome the Moroccans who stand in their way tonight.
