The Nigeria women's senior national team, Super Falcons coach, Randy Waldrum, has assured Nigerians of good results in Ivory Coast.
Waldrum made this known while speaking to journalists about Super Falcons second leg encounter against the Lady Elephants of Ivory Coast scheduled for Wednesday 23rd February at the Stade Robert Champroux in Abidjan.
According to the gaffer, he said: "They want to be physical, they want to foul, they want to disrupt the game, they want to go round and cry. They want to disrupt what we do but I think we can certainly prepare our players not to let that stuff affect them.
I think we've to go into that place on the front foot, I don't think we can't go in there and sit back and try to hold the two goal lead we have."
Recall that Ifeoma Onumonu's brace gave the Falcons an edge over Elephant during their first leg at the Moshood Abiola Stadium on Friday.
However the absence of Super Falcons captain, Asisat Oshoala might have a huge impact on the team but Waldrum is optimistic of a good result on Wednesday.
"We understand that if we go there and get a goal, it makes it very difficult for them. So there will be an approach, we go after the win in the Ivory Coast," says Waldrum.
