Nigeria’s Super Falcons will look to complete a clean sweep over Senegal when both sides meet in the second of their international friendly matches at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne on Monday.

The encounter follows Nigeria’s 2-1 victory in the first fixture on Friday, where the West African champions showed attacking quality to secure the result despite a late push from the visitors.

Asisat Oshoala and Toni Payne were on target for Nigeria, while Sokhna Nogaye scored a late consolation for Senegal in a tightly contested match.

The double-header is part of Nigeria’s preparation plan for the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) scheduled to take place in Morocco between July 25 and August 16.

Tactical preparation ahead of WAFCON

Head coach Justine Madugu is using the friendly series to assess squad depth and tactical options ahead of a major continental challenge, where Nigeria will again be among the favourites.

Senegal, meanwhile, are also fine-tuning their squad ahead of the tournament, where they have been drawn in Group A alongside hosts Morocco, Algeria and Kenya.

Nigeria will compete in Group C alongside Egypt, Zambia and debutants Malawi.

World Cup qualification adds pressure

This year’s WAFCON carries additional significance as it doubles as Africa’s qualification pathway for the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Brazil.

The four semi-finalists will automatically qualify for the global tournament, while the teams eliminated in the quarter-finals will enter additional play-offs to determine Africa’s remaining representatives.

Nigeria head into the competition as defending champions after securing a hard-fought 3-2 victory over Morocco in the previous edition final in Rabat.
