Super Falcons walk over São Tomé & Príncipe in WAFCON qualifiers

Next weekend’s Women’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifier between Super Falcons of Nigeria and São Tomé & Príncipe is off the card.

Information has it that the São Tomé & Príncipe have pulled out in what could have been the first time Nigeria have to play back-to-back with the same country in both men’s and women’s Africa Cup of Nations.

The first leg match was scheduled to hold at the waterfront stadium, Mobolaji Johnson Arena on Friday.

With the withdrawal, Nigeria now await the winner of Cape Verde and Liberia, at the second-round stage slated for the period 27th November – 5th December.

The final tournament will again be held in Morocco, just like the last year’s edition.
