Nigeria’s Super Falcons To Face US Women Squad Again

Nigeria’s Super Falcons To Face US Women Squad Again

 

Nigeria and USA women National Senior Teams will clash in Washington DC on Tuesday in the second of a two-match tour of the United States by the nine-time African champions.

 

Three-time world champions USA trounced the Falcons 4-0 in the two teams’ first encounter at the Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City, Missouri on Saturday, with a brace from Sophia Smith and one each by Lindsay Horan and Alex Morgan.

 
Both USA and Nigeria have qualified to participate at the 9th FIFA Women’s World Cup finals to be staged by Australia and New Zealand in the summer of next year.

Tuesday’s encounter will take place at the Audi Field in Washington.

Audi Field is utilized by National Women’s Soccer League side Washington Spirit and Major League Soccer team, D. C. United and though the USWNT have played 10 times previously in Washington (all at the RFK Stadium), it is their first run-out at the Audi Field.

The game will commence at 11pm Nigeria time (6pm in Washington DC).

Meanwhile, prior to their clash with USWNT in Kansas City, the Super Falcons took time to have a ‘Meet and Greet’ session with some prominent Nigerians based in the State of Missouri.

Super Falcons, though still number one in Africa, wobbled during the recently concluded Women African Cup of Nations held in Morocco, where they finished 4th.
