2023 WWC: Super Falcons can beat Australia – Ajibade boasts

Super Falcons player, Rasheedat Ajibade believes the team has the quality to beat Australia at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.

Recall the Falcon played out a 0-0 draw against the highly-rated Canucks of Canada on Friday, July 21.

And they take on co-host Australia in their next fixture on Thursday.

In a video posted on the Super Falcons Twitter handle, Ajibade expressed her confident of a good showing against the co-hosts.

“I’m really pumped up for the game so I’m 100 percent ready” Ajibade remarked.

“It’s going to be a difficult game, we are playing against the host team, in a very big stadium, with so much crowd.

“We are going to play against a lot of factors that day but I think we have this, we’ve got this, we’ve done it against big teams and I trust the whole team.

“We have the capacity, we have the talent, we have the energy, we have the strength, we have to bring our A-game.”

Ajibade missed the game against Canada due to a red card she received against Morocco at the semi-final stage of the 2022 Africa Women’s Cup of Nations.
