Following their group-stage exit at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Nigeria’s Super Falcons returned to action with renewed direction under interim coach Justin Madugu, appointed by the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) to lead the team after Randy Waldrum’s departure.
The team faced Algeria in a two-legged friendly series as Madugu began his tenure. The Falcons emerged victorious in both fixtures, beginning with a solid 2-0 win in Ikenne before securing a commanding 4-1 victory in Lagos.
The matches marked Coach Madugu’s debut in the dugout and signaled a positive shift for the Super Falcons, who are looking to rebuild around a core of home-based talent ahead of future international competitions.
In November, the Super Falcons returned to action with a friendly against France, which ended in a narrow 2-1 loss.
It took seven months, but Nigeria returned with a 2-0 win over neighbours Cameroon in June, 2025. Up next: a meeting with European powerhouse Portugal.
