NFF Faces Scheduling Crisis After Planned Opponent Withdraws From Super Falcons Friendly
The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is scrambling to secure new friendly matches for the Super Falcons after a planned opponent abruptly pulled out of an earlier agreement.
The NFF is in a dilemma and racing against time to arrange at least two friendly matches for the Super Falcons ahead of their upcoming international commitments. The federation’s preparation plans suffered a major setback when the country they had finalized talks with withdrew from the agreement.
According to officials, the withdrawal came unexpectedly after the opposing team’s coach opted to seek a lesser-ranked opponent. This development has left the NFF exploring alternative options to ensure the Super Falcons maintain form and match fitness.
Discussions are reportedly ongoing with several football associations, as the NFF aims to finalize new fixture arrangements in the coming days. Ensuring the Super Falcons get quality opposition remains a top priority, given their strong showing at recent international tournaments and the need to sustain their competitive rhythm.
