Super Falcons goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie has warned that there will be no easy opponents at the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations, insisting that the era of so-called minnows in African women’s football is over, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.
As Nigeria intensify preparations for the tournament in Morocco, the reigning African Women’s Goalkeeper of the Year believes every team is capable of causing an upset and has urged her teammates to approach every game with maximum respect.
“I don’t share the belief that any group is tougher than the others. Honestly, right now in Africa, there are no longer minnows,” Nnadozie said.
“There will be a lot of surprises in this tournament as the so-called small teams will be keen to prove they are no pushovers, so all teams deserve respect and must be taken seriously.
