Divided opinions trail the performance of Coach Randy Waldrum and his technical know-how ahead of the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand next year

Some of Nigeria’s top coaches have reacted to the Super Falcons’ ouster from the ongoing Women’s Africa Cup of Nations tournament taking place in Morocco.

“We have a great team, honestly. It shocked me they could hold on with two players short. The girls did wonderfully well apart from those two mistakes. In a similar vein, the Super Eagles assistant coach, Finidi George, also showered praises on the Super Falcons for their fighting spirit against the host.

“I commend the girls and their coaching crew. It is not easy to hold on with nine players. All they need to do is learn from their mistakes and move on. We are very proud of them,” he said. He said: “The Super Falcons were a bit unlucky playing with nine players for almost an hour and they could still push the game to the limit. I sincerely doff my hat for the doggedness and determination of the ladies.”

Another journalist, Enitan Obadina, advocated a better coaching crew for the Super Falcons if they are to fulfill their potential.
