As the journey to secure a coveted spot in the Paris Olympics intensifies, all eyes are on Nigeria’s Chinwendu Ihezuo to see if she can transfer her scintillating form from club Pachuca to the Super Falcons for the crucial Olympic qualifiers against South Africa.
Ihezuo has been tearing it up for her club, Pachuca Women’s Soccer Club, in Mexico’s Liga MX Femenil, propelling them to the upper echelons of the League. With an impressive tally of 8 goals in just 11 matches this campaign, there’s no question she’s a force to be reckoned with, arriving at the Super Falcons camp in top form.

With the weight of expectations on her shoulders, Ihezuo is poised to showcase her talent on the international stage and play a pivotal role in Nigeria’s quest for Olympic qualification. As the Super Falcons gear up for their upcoming fixtures, all eyes will be on Ihezuo as she seeks to ignite the team’s success and propel them towards Olympic glory. Let’s go Super Falcons!
