Nigeria Football
Federation president Amaju Pinnick on Thursday promised to reward the
Super Falcons with $10,000 if they retain the Africa Women’s Cup of
Nations title in Ghana on Saturday.
The Falcons battle Banyana Banyana of South Africa in the final of the competition at the Accra Sports Stadium in Ghana on Saturday. The two teams have qualified for the France 2019 World Cup but while the Falcons are seeking to win their ninth African crown, the South Africans want to claim their first title.
Pinnick, who visited the team at their hotel in Accra on Thursday, appealed to the team to win the title as a birthday gift for him. The CAF 1st vice president’s birthday is on Saturday.
The Falcons had earned $3,000 for a win in the group phase but were earmarked for $5,000 each for victory in the final.
