The Super Falcons face the Lionesses of England in a deciding clash for the Quarter finals in the ongoing FIFA women’s World Cup.
The 40-year-old, on Sunday, stated on the official handle of the Nigeria Football Federation, “I feel gingered, I feel strong, and I feel ready. We prepared for this all year, not even now.
