Revelation Cup: We are ready to go – Plumptre
Super Falcons defender Ashleigh Plumptre has said the team is battle ready for their opponents at the four-nation invitational tournament in Morocco.
The former African champions will be joined at the competition tagged” Revelation Cup” by hosts Mexico, Colombia and Costa Rica.
Randy Waldrum’s side will take on Mexico in their first game in Leon on Wednesday night (today).
The Nigerian ladies are winless in their last five games, but Plumptre, who plays for English club, Leicester City, insists they will end the barren run.
“We prepare for every game knowing we are trying to win and we will compete to the best of our ability to make sure we get the results,” Plumptre said in a short video interview published on the Super Falcons Twitter handle.
“I’ve prepared myself in the same way for every game and we are ready to go.”
The competition will serve as part of Super Falcons’ preparations for the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup to be co-hosted by Australia and New Zealand.
