The Acting Head Coach of the Super Falcons Christopher Danjuma has said his team will go all out for victory against Cote d’Ivoire in today’s Tokyo 2020 Olympics women’s football tournament, African qualifying second round first leg clash in Abidjan.
In a telephone interview with thenff.com yesterday Danjuma who spoke from Abidjan venue of the match said a win is non-negotiable as the Super Falcons want to make the return leg in Nigeria on Monday an easier session for themselves.
“We know the Ivorians are a strong team; we could only beat them on penalties during the WAFU Cup of Nations. However, it is a new day and an altogether new contest on Thursday and we will go for an outright win.
“The Super Falcons have the capacity to dominate and score goals that will make the second leg in Lagos a formality.”
Today’s encounter will take place at the Stade Parc des Sports de Treichville, as from 3.30pm Ivorian time (4.30pm Nigeria).
The Falcons, who are staying at the Grand Hotel in Abidjan had a feel of the match venue yesterday at 3:30pm Ivorian time.
