Super Falcons Gear Up for Egypt in WAFCON 2026 Clash

Nigeria’s Super Falcons intensified their preparations for the final Group C fixture against Egypt at the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco. The training session took place on Monday evening at 6:00 p.m. local time at the ASFAR Training Centre in Rabat, led by head coach Justine Madugu, who focused on perfecting strategies for the critical match.

The ten-time African champions had a light recovery session on Sunday after achieving a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Zambia at the Al Madina Stadium on Saturday night, where Asisat Oshoala scored the decisive goal. The Super Falcons displayed resilience, managing to hold onto their lead despite playing the entire second half with 10 players due to Oluwatosin Demehin’s red card.

This victory was vital in reviving Nigeria’s quarter-final hopes after a disappointing 3-2 loss to Malawi in their opening match. The upcoming encounter against Egypt will be held at the Olympic Stadium in Rabat, with the Super Falcons aiming for a strong finish in the group phase.
