How Super Falcons can qualify from Olympic group
The Super Falcons still have optimism despite these depressing outcomes.
They still have a chance to be among the top three teams from the group stage, but it will take a strong victory over Japan in their last match.
)
To be more precise, they must win by a minimum of two goals in order to be eligible to move on to the next round.
Japan's 2-1 victory over Brazil provides them 3 points and a goal difference of zero, thus they must not only win but also eliminate the goal differential.
Nigeria could advance as one of the top third-place teams if they win by two goals or more; if they win by less, they'll probably be eliminated from the competition.
After 2 defeats to Brazil and Spain, here is the time and where to watch the Super Falcons of Nigeria take on the Nadeshiko of Japan in a must-win 3rd Paris 2024 Olympics game.
