Okon said that his players can hold their own anywhere, saying that Super Falcons will come out as leaders of the group when the championship begins in Canada.
“I trust in ‘can do spirit’ of the average Nigerian. I am a Nigerian and Nigerians always have a way of coming out of difficult situations. Many people have been talking of the group of death but I don’t see any death for my team, we are not even talking of surviving in the group, but we are thinking of coming out tops of that group, that is our calculation.”
The coach would not talk about the players he intends to prosecute the championship with insisting that such is basically a technical issue which he will not discuss openly, even as he assured that every Nigerian will be happy with the list when it is made public.
