Nigeria female head coach, Randy Waldrum, express his feeling for the new renovated pitch of the Moshood Abiola National Stadium Abuja as excellent and capable of hosting any. Big game in the world, and he fancies his Nigeria ladies confronting their next opponent at the venue.
This is a fantastic stadium with an excellent pitch is of a very high standard and I will love the Super Falcons to play their final Africa Women Cup of Nations qualifying game against Ivory Coast here in Abuja, Waldrum told sports source after unscheduled of the renovated stadium on Thursday morning.
I' will have to discuss with the Nigeria Football Federation President Amaju Pinnick through the General Secretary.
Mohammed Sanusi, to allow the Super Falcons play their lady counterpart of Ivory Coast here.
The American reiterated his love for the size of the pitch and the lushness of grass, stressing the size will enable his girls play good football to overrun their counterpart.
Waldrum said, honestly we need to play here to beat the ivorian to the Africa Cup Nations ticket in Morocco and then fight for the World Cup slot.
I just hope we get the go head to play here and enjoy the advantage of the width of the pitch and possibly get more support from Nigerians in Abuja.
I have watched the way they play and I am very sure we can take advantage of the Abuja stadium to beat them well and make the second leg a formality. I am not saying that Lagos is not good we have had good time in Lagos, but in this case, I want us to play in Abuja to maximize our advantages, Waldrum reiterated.
The Super Falcons who are currently on a nine day camping in Abuja are expected to clash with the Lady Elephants of Cote d Ivoire on February 14, 2022 in the first leg in Nigeria while the second leg comes up a week later.
