BEIJING – Nigeria’s female under-23 team will play a formality match against the skillful Brazilians in their preliminary Olympic football match in Beijing today.
The Nigerian ladies have had poor performances in the Games as they lost two matches in a row. They were beaten by a lone goal in their opener by Korea Republic while the Germans also thrashed the m by the same margin.
As a result, the Nigerians have already secured an early exit from the summer games.
Before the Olympic games predicted failure for the Falcons who could not use the opportunity of another international competition to prove cynics wrong by winning their matches.
Indeed, the Nigerian team tutored by Jossy Lad which upspring of the core of the Effiom Nitro’s world cup squad in China last year have failed to change their fortunes.
Pundits therefore believe that they will not also survive today’s game with the dangerous and sleekly Brazilians.
