Coach Randy Waldrum has said the Super Falcons have made improvements leading up to this year’s FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
On Tuesday, the Falcons defeated World Cup co-hosts New Zealand 3-0 for the team’s third straight win as they stepped up preparations for the World Cup.
“Probably still a ‘B’ (grade) for the team, we got three goals and a clean sheet, maybe I guess am a little harsh with that grade, but there are still so many things we can improve on,” Waldrum said.
“We have got better and better, that’s what we need leading up to the World Cup.”
He commended Jennifer Echegini for her first goal for the Super Falcons, which he described as “world-class”.
The Falcons, who are drawn against co-hosts Australia, Canada and Republic of Ireland, will soon open training camp ahead of the World Cup, which kicks off July 20.
