Falconets prepare against Australia, Mexico

The Falconets will test their readiness for next month’s FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup in Colombia with two test matches against Australia and Mexico.

Falconets coach Chris Danjuma disclosed this in an interview.

Danjuma said the team plan to set up training camp in the middle of next month in Colombia ahead of the World Cup, which begins on August 31.

“We will train in Colombia for two weeks before the World Cup kicks off,” he said.

The Falconets invited 32 players for training camp in Abuja with the team to present a 21-person final squad for the World Cup.

Nigeria is drawn with three-time champions Germany, Venezuela and Korea in the first round of the tournament.
