Super Falcons preview
The Super Falcons play with a great deal of synchronization and discipline, which is one of their main strengths. The other is versatility.
Preventing the opponent from scoring and defending in units, motions, and as a team has been their primary mantra in recent times.

Their defensive discipline is demonstrated by their three clean sheets in four games, two of which came against Olympic gold medalists and European champions.
This quality will come in handy when they play aggressive teams like Brazil and Spain.
The club's versatility—more than five players can play at least two different positions on the team with ease—is another strong suit.

Nearly all of the forward players are capable of playing as either wingers or strikers, and players like Toni Payne and Rasheedat Ajibade can play both in the middle and on the wing.
If they survive this group of death, it will depend on how the coach uses this adaptability.
Lately, there has been a noticeable lack of attacking unity and, as a result, few goals.

Waldrum constantly modifies his attacking setup to find the ideal balance that would allow him to produce the appropriate attacking output, owing to his diverse range of attacking skills.
The coach faces a significant challenge in selecting the ideal combination of players who can provide the required outcomes because various individuals bring different solutions to the squad.
