Super Falcons defender Glory Ogbonna, says Cameroon, their quarter-final opponents in the ongoing Africa Women Cup of Nations (WAFCON), will not be an easy foe to conquer.

“The Cameroon women’s team is a good team and they are also pursuing the ticket for the World Cup. As such, they will not be easy to defeat,” Ogbonna told reporters on Monday.

“They are a very good side and champions of the Africa Women football in their own right,” Ogbonna added.

However, she said the Falcons would overcome the Cameroonians in the match, scheduled for Thursday in Casablanca, Morocco.

She said the team’s aim was not only to qualify for the World Cup but also to retain the Africa Women trophy.

“We remain focused and committed to securing the World Cup ticket and also winning the Women trophy for a record 10th time.

“What we are doing is just a quarter-final game at a time and at the same time, correcting every of our mistakes in the matches,” she stated.

The Falcons, on Sunday, defeated the Burundians 4-0 to book a quarter-final place with Cameroon.

The Nigerian team lost the first game 1-2 to South Africa and won their second game against Botswana 2-0.
