"Voted Most Valuable Player in the last group game against Canada Stella says "you know that was my last world cup so I was so happy when I was voted the MVP for that match. We told ourselves we will not leave the tournament without winning a match,
that was why we played our hearts out and got the result against Canada."
Voted Most Valuable Player in the last group game against Canada Stella said they were resolved to record a victory in the tournamnet hence the reason they fought hard to beat Canada in their last group match, adding that she was not happy when she was voted the Most Valuable Match in the game against Canada.
"We surprised Germany in our second match. You know after ourfriendly with them last year which they beat us 8-0,they thought it will be the same score line. We are proud we played well against Germany,we were not disgraced but rather Germany lost their invincibility. Afterthat match other teams knew that with hard work and determination they can hold their own against them. But the question everyone will ask is: who won? If you play well and you do not win you have not played anything. On that day Germany won not with huge score line but they beat us and we are so sad about that".
"A veteran of three Olympics (Sydney 2000, Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008) believes the Lionesses of Cameroon cannot stop Super Falcons from qualifying for the games. "We will beat Cameroon and qualify for the Olympics next year. Olympics is a
big tournament, it is another big stage where you have big teams too. The difference with world cup is that they have provision for best looser. If we had best looser in the world cup surely we would have qualified from our group. I believe strongly that we will surely pick the Olympic ticket".
