Nigerian fans have taken to social media to praise the Super Falcons after they were named the Women’s Team of the Year at the CAF 2023 Awards off the back of an impressive showing at the Women’s World Cup on Monday, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.
Nigeria’s brave ladies bowed out of the competition in the round of 16 after losing to England on penalties after normal and extra time ended barren.
The Super Falcons ended their Mundial campaign without losing any match in regulation time and they were the only undefeated African national. They did not lose a match in their three group B games as they drew Olympic champions Canada, shock co-hosts Australia, and settled for a point against the Republic of Ireland.
After they were announced winners, Nigerians took to social media platform X to praise the Falcons.
Akpati Nshiegbe is of the opinion that the Falcons were clear winners and unmatched by other African teams.
“There is actually no match. Your World Cup display was what no African country can match easily,” Nshiegbe wrote.
Merrick Olu believed the honour was well deserved following their achievements in the time under review.
“Weldone girls. This is well deserved,” Olu wrote.
