Super Falcons Set for WAFCON 2026 Quarter-Final Against Cameroon
The Nigeria Women's National Football Team, known as the Super Falcons, has officially landed in Casablanca as they prepare for their much-anticipated quarter-final match in the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON). This crucial encounter is set to take place against the formidable Indomitable Lionesses of Cameroon, showcasing a pivotal moment in the tournament. The match is scheduled for Sunday at the Larbi Zaouli Stadium, kicking off at 6 PM Nigerian time.
In their quest for victory, the Super Falcons held a training session at the ASFAR training center in Rabat on Friday morning, focusing on fine-tuning their strategies and building team cohesion ahead of this significant match. Under the guidance of head coach Justine Madugu, the team's preparations have been rigorous, aimed at ensuring they are at their best for the showdown against Cameroon.
Should the Super Falcons advance to the semi-finals, they will return to Rabat to face either the host team, the Atlas Lionesses of Morocco, or the Banyana Banyana of South Africa. This tournament has been a challenging journey for the defending champions, who concluded the group stage in second place behind the Scorchers of Malawi, after competing in all three of their group matches in Rabat. Meanwhile, Cameroon topped Group D with seven points, ahead of the Black Queens of Ghana, setting the stage for what promises to be an exhilarating quarter-final clash.
