The former Sweden women national team coach stated that 26 players are already in camp. "26 players resumed camp on Sunday and the target for the WAFU is first of all and the most important is to really secure that domestic players are in good form for the final camp because you know that 7 to 10 players among the home based will be going into camp for the fiance preparation for the world cup. Although, winning the WAFU will be a plus for the team." He told www.bsnsports.com.ng He admitted that FCT is blessed with good and talented omen footballers but says it is very difficult and unfair to invite players to the national camp based one match. "Honestly, to pick a player for the national team when you see them once is not fair because it is a final and when you play final.

So, you need to see a player play mire than one time to conclude on whether to be invited to the national team. But of course there were a lot of good players here today who are good enough to be in the national team.
