“I am not surprised the Super Falcons were beaten by Cote d’Ivoire.” Nigeria SuperFalcons Falcons

The failure in 2016 completed a back-to-back Olympic disappointment for the Super Falcons, as the girls were shown the exit doors four years earlier in the race to London 2012 Olympics under Coach Uche Eucharia.

Super Falcons elimination from the race to Tokyo 2020 has generated a lot of reactions from Nigerians. While some are putting the blame on the doorsteps of the Nigeria Football Federation for assigning the national team job to ‘a mediocre coach,’ others are of the view that the Women Football department of the NFF needs a total overhaul.

“I am not surprised the Super Falcons were beaten by Cote d’Ivoire,” Esu told The Guardian yesterday. “We need to change our attitude, especially when it comes to assigning coaches to the national teams. There are too many mediocre coaches in the national teams.” Super Falcons’ defeat to Cote d’Ivoire on Monday came barely a few days after Cape Verde eliminated Nigeria from the 2019 WAFU Cup. The Home-based Super Eagles had earlier suffered a 1-4 loss to the Hawks of Togo.
