In the wake of the Super Eagles’ 1-0 victory against Rwanda on Saturday evening, Super Falcons’ defender Michelle Alozie took to social media to urge fans to extend their unwavering support to the women’s national team as well.

“All the fans showing up for the Super Eagles game, don’t forget to show up to the Super Falcons too,” Alozie wrote, underscoring the need for equal enthusiasm and backing for the female squad.

Her statement comes as a call to action for Nigerian football fans to rally behind both teams, recognising the talent and commitment displayed by the Super Falcons on the international stage.

Alozie’s challenge highlights the ongoing struggle for visibility and support faced by women’s football, even as the men’s team enjoys widespread fanfare.

She hopes that the current excitement around Nigerian football will inspire more substantial and consistent attendance and support for the Super Falcons’ matches.
