Super Falcons former coach, Godwin Izilein says the current team under Randy Waldrum has the potential to surpass its quarter finals record at the ongoing female world cup.
Izilein said this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Calabar on Friday.
He said the players need to improve on the team’s cohesion for a better outing in their coming game.
The former female team’s coach said the team’s performance so far at the ongoing female world cup was encouraging.
”So far, the team has surpassed the expectations of many. The team can indeed surpass its previous record of reaching the quarter-finals.
”The girls need to ensure effective possession of the ball. This is lacking in the Falcons team now.
”It is advantageous to keep possession of the ball. Our girls also need to learn how to mark when dispossessed,” he said.
Izilein urged the team to make good use of the ongoing world cup and write their names in the book of history.
He expressed worries that after nine appearances at the female global event, the country still had nothing to show.
”You can see that there is a need to improve our performance. We have the materials, the girls are strong and experienced, we can achieve it,” he said.
