The Super Falcons had their first feel of a new training pitch in Rabat yesterday as they stepped up preparations for the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) final in Morocco.
The Nigerian team arrived in the Moroccan capital on Wednesday, just a day after securing a 2-1 semifinal victory over South Africa’s Banyana Banyana, booking their place in the tournament’s final where they will face the host nation, Morocco’s Atlas Lionesses.
The opening 15 minutes of Thursday’s training session, led by head coach Justin Madugu, were open to the media.
The nine-time African champions are scheduled to hold a closed-door training session at the same venue today, ahead of tomorrow’s highly anticipated final at the Olympic Stadium in Rabat.
Meanwhile, Ghana, beaten by Morocco in the second semifinal, will face South Africa in the third-place match taking place today in Casablanca.
