Super Falcons head coach Randy Waldrum has explained reason why Asisat Oshoala was left out of the team during the first leg of the Olympic qualifier.
The American-based attacker arrived at the team camp on Thursday for the Game on Friday and the coach believed she was tired for the game.
” When Asisat arrived she looked tired from the long travel she had and this explains the reason, I didn’t play her.
” I will assess her fitness level to be able to decide if she will feature in the second leg”, the coach said.
Meanwhile, the team is scheduled to depart Nigeria on Sunday for the second leg match.
The match is to take place at the Loftus Stadium in Pretoria with the winner over both legs reaching the Paris 2024.
