The Underdogs – Super Falcons Forward, Ifeoma Onumonu recently assessed her team’s chances against the Lionesses of England in the upcoming round of 16 game at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
She openly acknowledged that the Super Falcons would be considered underdogs due to FIFA rankings and past performances in women’s football championships.
Speaking on “Super Falcons Show,” Onumonu emphasized that rankings and history have led to this perception of the team as underdogs.
However, she firmly believes that their previous performances have already proven that FIFA rankings do not necessarily determine their capabilities on the field.

The match between England and Nigeria will take place at Lang Park, Brisbane, Australia, on Monday, August 7, 2023, at 17:30 GMT.
As the round of 16 approaches, the Super Falcons have shown that they are more than just their ranking and have the potential to deliver outstanding performances.
In the world of the World Cup, rankings hold little significance compared to the actual delivery and performance on the field.
What matters most is what the team can achieve throughout the course of the game.
While England may be considered favorites, the Super Falcons has all it takes to surprise them if they approach the fixture with the right attitude and energy.
Let’s cheer on the Super Falcons! Go Super Falcons!
