Super Falcons Star Ordega Aware Of Importance Of Match Vs South Korea

Published: June 11, 2019

Shanghai Shenhua striker Francisca Ordega is confident that the Super Falcons will get their FIFA Women's World Cup campaign back on track when they face South Korea at the Stade des Alpes, Grenoble on Wednesday afternoon.

At the World Cup, Nigeria have not managed a win in their last four matches, with their last victory coming against Canada in the 2011 edition.

Flamboyant on and off the pitch, Ordega was one of the few bright sparks as the Super Falcons suffered a 3-0 loss at the hands of Norway in their opener on Saturday.

''Our plan is to qualify for the next round. We don't want to go home so the next two games are very, very important,'' Ordega told fifa.com.

''We are going to fight. We are going to do everything we can to go through."

Despite the heavens opening up, the Super Falcons still trained this morning ahead of tomorrow's game against the Asians who were thrashed 4-0 by France three days ago.
