Super Falcons coach, Randy Waldrum says he is happy to have Desire Oparanozie, Chiamaka Nnadozie, and Ngozi Okobi back in his team.
The trio made return to the National team after a very long time and they are currently at the Austria camp training for the Aisha Buhari Invitation Tournament.
Chiamaka Nnadozie, Ngozi Okobi, and Desire Oparanozie are also working under Coach Randy Waldrum for the time since his appointment.
In a chat with Super Falcons media officer, The American tactician says he regretted not having them on time, but but he’s happy to welcome them back to the team again.
“The new players that just joined were fantastic. We have tried to get all three of them (Desire Oparanozie, Ngozi Okobi, and Chiamaka Nnadozie) for a while now. We haven’t been able to for some reason. We can see the successes they had and now seeing them, one can see the qualities they possess.”
“I wished we had them in Texas against the US but it allowed us to see some younger players. Adding those veteran players that have got leadership qualities on the field can’t be replaced. They have been a great addition.” Says Coach Waldrum.
Waldrum concluded that he feel better with the players at his disposal and he’s having better understanding of each one of them as time goes on.
“I feel much closer to knowing who would be in our group to be invited and play in those important games that we have ahead of us. I feel much better now than when I did at our first week in Turkey.” he concluded.
