Falconets Coach Drops Uchechi, 6 Others

Falconets Head Coach, Edwin Okon, has dropped World Cup Silver Medalist, Uchechi Sunday and six other players.

According to Okon, the players were dropped in a bid to reduce the number of players in camp to twenty five.

Uchechi plays for FA Cup winners, Rivers Angels, and featured for the Under 20 Women National Team that placed second at the 2010 FIFA Women's World Cup in Germany and Super Falcons that failed to qualify for the 2012 Olympics.

Others re Vivian Okotie, Lola Phillips, Bukola Oguinnoiki, Jane David, Tina Oge and Aguawaba Chineyen.

As painful as it was, Okon however thanked the players for their efforts while reminding those left to continue to give their best in training.

Only 25 players will make the training tour to South Korea with another four dropped for the FIFA Under 20 Women's World Cup which begins on August 18 in Japan.

Nigeria has been drawn against Korea Republic, Brazil and Italy in Group B.
