By: Abdullahi AbdulKareem
The Super Falcons will be slugging it out against the Olympic champions at the Melbourne Rectangular Stadium.
Co-host Australia and Republic of Ireland are the other two teams the Nigerian team will play against in the group stage.
Super Falcons head coach, Randy Waldrum has said his team is battle ready for their opening fixture against Canada at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
The Canadians will head into the game as the overwhelming favourites, but Waldrum stated that his charges are up for the task ahead.
The American also said his players had prepared adequately for the game
Though the weather he said is going to be a little bit of a factor because it is winter and colder there. All the same, the players will have to adapt.
“It’s a 12:30 kick-off midday game, so that should help a little bit with the weather. I think the thing is, you get to this point, you just have to play in the elements, whatever they are, you’re at the World Cup.
“But I think the players are prepared, I think they understand the game plan, now we just have to make sure we execute it.”
