Chiamaka Nnadozie says the Super Falcons will give their all to earn a berth at the 2024 Olympic Games, OsunDailyNG reports.
The nine-time African champions failed to qualify for the last three editions of the Olympics.
The West Africans last appeared at the sporting fiesta in Beijing 2008.
Randy Waldrum’s side will confront perennial rivals, Cameroon in the first leg of their third round tie at the Stade de la Reunification, Douala, on Friday (today).
Ahead of the highly anticipated encounter, Nnadozie claimed the Super Falcons can’t afford to miss out on the ticket again.
“I know it’s been long we qualified for the Olympics but this is a new phase and we have to focus on it,” the Paris FC goalie told a press conference.
“The girls are ready, we know what it takes and we know everyone is expecting us to qualify.
“We are in good spirit and the coach is very confident in us and we hope to qualify this time.”
Acknowledging Cameroon’s formidable squad, she added, “Cameroon is a very good side with exceptional players whom we respect, but tomorrow (today), we have to come out strong. We are confident. I believe in our team, and we are ready to play this game.”
