“They are good, a lot of knocks during the match even prior to that we’ve had Desire Oparanozie on the bench recovering from knocks almost fully fit.

“I saw Ohale last night before going to bed she was walking fine so they should be good before our next game.“

Tobechukwu expressed gratitude to Nigerians both at home and in Australia whose support has served as motivation for the Falcons to go out there to do the unthinkable.

She stated that the Falcons’ target now is to finish top in Group B so that they will remain in Brisbane.
