It’s the final round qualifier for the Junior Women’s World Cup
“The Nigeria league system might be in some form of quandary at the moment but I know that the girls we have are ready to do the Nation proud and that I know will be demonstrated on Saturday in Johannesburg. Falode revealed that as a woman, her passion for football and especially Women’s football will never waiver assuring that in due course she will be part of the process of revitalizing Nigerian women’s football.
