Super Falcons Coach Is Sure Of World Cup Ticket.

The Chief Coach of Super Falcons Edwin Okon has expressed optimism that the team he is building will not only do very well at the African Women Championship (AWC) in Namibia but qualify for the World Cup.

Insisting that his team is work in progress, Okon said that the plan is to go to Namibia and win the AWC trophy they lost in 2012 in Equatorial Guinea and go to the world cup in Canada as African champions.

He said his optimism stems from the progress the girls have made over the last three weeks adding that Super Falcons are on their way to regain their lost glory in African football.

"I am impressed with the way the players have responded to what we have been teaching them and by the time we are through with the rebuilding of the Super Falcons, they would be unstoppable.

"We shall begin to have a clearer picture of a new Super Falcons after the Cameroon friendly match. I am sure Nigerians would love the new Falcons by the time we are through with the rebuilding process" he stated

The Rivers Angel coach said he is aware of the opposition they would face at the AWC in Namibia but stressed that their target is to win the cup and qualify for the world cup.

He said countries like Ghana, South Africa, Cameroon and defending champions Equatorial Guinea will also be angling for the AWC title, his girls would not lose focus.
