Player of the Tournament: Esther Okoronkwo, on quality of performance. Only real mark against her is she didn't start the first 2 matches. If that is too much to overlook, then give it to Ghizlane Chebbak. But, considering Eather assisted winner v Botswana, it oughtn't matter.
Well, that's certainly one way to do it. Mission X is complete.
Again, I ask: why was the disruption necessary?
Rinsola coming on a good idea, but the only way Okoronkwo makes sense at 9 is if you have a powerful runner stretching the play. Need a proper centre-forward now, Esther right. Also, if Echegini was fit anyway, why was the disruption to the starting XI necessary?

There is certainly a tactical element, but the Super Falcons are misplacing and/or underhitting simple passes, the intensity is way off and much of the decision-making has been bizarre. The occasion is clearly doing a number on them.
Echegini will be a big miss tonight, as her positioning would typically allow Ihezuo play on the last line. As Abiodun is not a like-for-like replacement, if the Super Falcons wish to retain that threat, Plumptre might need to play higher.
Please, guys...
Fellow Nigerians, If the Super Falcons lose tonight, it will not be because they're playing in white for the first time in this tournament. Cheers.
A shame, that error, as Ayinde has been excellent all tournament. But an outstanding finish by Chebbak.
Moroccan fans - 95% Nigerian fans - 5% They're in a little corner of the stadium, obviously outnumbered but the Nigerian fans are loud regardless. Ready to cheer the Super Falcons to victory. #TotalEnergiesWAFCON2024 #WAFCON2024 #MissionX #SoarSuperFalcons #WAFCONWithBiola

Wherever you come down on the GMO conversation, this as a rebuttal is just patently asinine.
I don't like GMOs but you've eaten "Agric fowl" and broiler. 😂😂😂 It was a choice you made. No one forced you to eat them.
