For the second time this year, the Super Falcons of Nigeria will on Sunday play their final pre-World Cup match against their Slovakian counterparts .

It will be recalled that on 1st March 2019 at the Cyprus Women’s Cup in March, the nine -time African champions edged a seven -goal thriller against the Slovakians, with goals from midfielder Rita Chikwelu (a brace), defender Osinachi Ohale and forward Anam Imo.

Sunday’s game comes up five days after the Falcons travelled to Hungary to defeat Hungarian top division team Haladas Viktoria 5-1 in their first friendly since arriving at the Avita Resort for a two -week residential camping ahead of the 8th FIFA Women’s World Cup finals in France, starting next week Friday.

On return from Hungary, the Falcons will train on Monday, before flying to France on Tuesday ahead of their first match of the FIFA World Cup against Norway in Reims on Saturday, 8th June.
