2023 WWC: ‘We have what it takes for the World Cup final

Super Falcons’ rising star, Toni Payne, exudes unwavering confidence as she believes her team has what it takes to go the distance in the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.

After securing a spot in the Round of 16 with a goalless draw against the Republic of Ireland, Randy Waldrum’s side has shown remarkable resilience, remaining undefeated in the competition with one victory and two draws in their three group games.

As the team continues to make waves on the global stage, Payne expressed her optimism about their chances to go all the way to the final.

“If we maintain our current level of play and keep improving with each match, we can reach the final,” said the talented Sevilla star following Monday’s game at Brisbane Stadium. “Our team consists of exceptional and hard-working players, and together, we can achieve our goals.”

Having finished second in Group B, trailing behind co-hosts Australia, the Super Falcons have proven themselves as a formidable force, demonstrating a perfect blend of skill, determination, and team spirit.

With their sights set on the upcoming Round of 16 clash against either European champions England or Denmark, the West African squad is brimming with confidence and determination to advance further in the prestigious tournament.
