Oshoala Leads Falcons’ Charge for Another WAFCON Success

Six-time African Women’s Player of the Year, Asisat Oshoala, has stated that the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) is a trophy worth fighting for despite the Super Falcons’ long-standing dominance in the competition.

Oshoala, one of the early arrivals at Nigeria’s training camp in Casablanca, Morocco, is preparing with the team as they aim to defend their WAFCON title.

Nigeria will compete in the tournament from July 25 to August 16, with the goal of securing their 11th continental championship and earning a qualification spot for the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup.

The Super Falcons striker emphasized that every edition of WAFCON should highlight the continued growth and development of women’s football across Africa, both on and off the pitch.
