Super Falcons forward, Asisat Oshoala, is setting her sights on a podium finish at the 2024 Olympic Games. The Nigerian women's national team, nine-time African champions, will return to the Olympics after a 16-year hiatus.
Challenging Group for Super Falcons
Randy Waldrum's squad faces a tough
challenge, having been drawn in a group with reigning world champions Spain,
along with Japan and Brazil. Despite the formidable opposition, Oshoala remains
optimistic about the Super Falcons' chances.
Oshoala's Determination
"We don’t just think about getting out
of the group, I think we can actually walk away with a medal," Oshoala,
who currently plays for Bay FC, stated in an interview with FIFA.com.
Previous Olympic Performances
The Super Falcons have struggled in their
past Olympic appearances, failing to progress beyond the group stage in their
three previous outings. However, with Oshoala's confidence and leadership,
there is renewed hope for a historic performance in Paris.
