Falcons coach, Thomas Dennerby opted for Ngozi Okosi, Halimat Ayinde, Francisca Ordega and Chinwendu for the midfield, while the duo of Uchenna Kanu and the team’s captain Desire Oparanozie are charged with striking role.
The substitutes are; Tochukwu Oluehi, Jonathan, Chinasa Uchenna Ogebe, Anam Imo, Amarachi Okoronkwo and Ogonna Chukwudi.
