Super falcons assistant coach Perpetua Nwokocha has brushed aside reports suggesting that she is nervous to lead the team. Nwokocha is assistant to coach, Florence Omagbemi.
The former African footballer of the year said that most of the players were her former teammates in the national team and that it is a plus for her to work with them at another level. “How can I be nervous working with the team when most of them were my former teammates in the national team. It is an opportunity for me to make positive contributions to the team and I am happy to be part of it,” she said.
The current coach of Swedish side, Clemensnas said that she would join the team from her base in Sweden behind schedule owing to commitments with her club. It can be recalled that the 40 year old represented Nigeria in Sydney 2000, Athens 2004 and Beijing 2008 Olympic games.
