The Super Falcons of Nigeria were unable to train for Algeria due to the rain in Lagos.

Ahead of the squad's two international friendly matches against the Algerian senior women's national team, head coach Justine Madugu expressed his happiness on Tuesday that all 25 of the invited players were already in camp as they got set for their first practice at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena.

The squad had to return to the Eko Hotel & Towers for gym practices after the training session was canceled due to Tuesday's intense rain in Lagos.

In a statement by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Madugu stated that all players invited are in camp.
