ASISAT OSHOALA PREDICTS THOUGH SEMI FINALS TIE AGAINST CAMEROON

By Theophilus Udo

Super Falcons star Asisat Oshoala says the semi-final match against the Lioness of Cameroon on Tuesday at the Accra Sports Stadium will be difficult.

Speaking shortly after the team's training at Presbyterian Boys secondary school play ground in Accra, Oshoala, hinted that against Cameroon it is always hard but that as usual, the Falcons will triumph and move on to get one of the three avalaible tickets for the world cup in France next year.

Oshoala while reiterating that in all the meetings between the Falcons and the Lioness, the Falcons have had an upper hand, she thanked the president of Nigeria, Mr. Mohammadu Buhari and the Nigeria Football Federation president, Mr. Amaju pinnick for providing them with all they needed for a successful 2018 African women cup of Nations as defending champions. She called  on Nigerians to keep faith with the Falcons as they are poised to win the trophy for a record nine times.

" Against Cameroon will be a difficult match on Tuesday, they are a good side. We meet them severally and we have had an upper hand and we will come out victoriously on Tuesday because we are well motivated by the president of Nigeria, Mr. Muhamamdu Buhari, president of the Nigeria Football Federation President Mr. Amaju Melvin Pinnick and with the support of millions of Nigerians back home, we are good to go"

On her performances in the last group B match against Equatorial Guinea in which she scored a hat-trick and was subsequently nominated woman of the match, she said what is important for her is the success of the team and not hers.

" It is not about me but the Falcons as a team. I am happy when the team is succeeding rather than me being the one shining. It is a team work in which everybody contribute to the  team's success ".
