Super Falcons arrive US for friendly matches

Nigeria’s Super Falcons have arrived Kansas City, United States of America, ahead of their double-header friendlies against the United States of America.

Randy Waldrum’s side will face their hosts in the first friendly at the Children’s Mercy Park in Kansas City, Kansas on Saturday.

The second friendly is billed for next week Tuesday at the Audi Field, Washington DC.

The two countries will use both friendlies as part of their preparations for the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup to be hosted by Australia and New Zealand.

The Super Falcons were last in action at the 2022 Africa Women’s Cup of Nations in Morocco.

The Super Falcons have won the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations nine times, played in every edition of the FIFA Women’s World Cup, and also played at the 2000, 2004, and 2008 Olympic women’s football tournaments.

They remain the most successful women’s team on the African continent.
