Super Falcons captain Rasheedat Ajibade has praised her team’s resilience and the passionate support from fans following Nigeria’s 2-0 victory over Cameroon in Tuesday’s international friendly at the M.K.O. Abiola Sports Arena in Abeokuta.

Ajibade, who netted both goals in the first half, delivered a commanding performance, leading by example in her captaincy role. In her post-match comments, the Atlético Madrid star highlighted the importance of focus, seizing opportunities, and representing the country with pride.

She commended the electric atmosphere created by fans in the stands, describing their energy as a vital boost to the team’s morale. According to Ajibade, such unwavering support inspires the players and fuels their determination, especially in tough contests against established rivals like Cameroon.

Beyond her goal-scoring heroics, the skipper spoke on the team’s broader mission as preparations continue for the upcoming Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco. She stressed the need for consistent hard work in training, unity within the squad, and strict adherence to the technical directions from the coaching staff.

“Victories like this remind us of what we can achieve when we stay disciplined, play with purpose, and trust each other,” Ajibade remarked. She was quick to credit her teammates for the collective effort, emphasizing that teamwork, not individual brilliance, was the cornerstone of their success.

Ajibade’s leadership continues to shine in Nigeria’s evolving setup, with her measured post-match reflections balancing celebration with a firm call for continued focus.

With more friendlies and training camps on the horizon, the Super Falcons remain determined to give their all for Nigeria. Ajibade reaffirmed the team’s belief that with unity, discipline, and unyielding fan support, they can reach new heights on the continental stage.
