As the Super Falconets file out against Germany in the finals of the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Canada on Sunday, Nigeria’s First Lady, Patience Jonathan, is encouraging the team to step up its can-do-spirit by beating its opponent, Germany to win the cup.

The First Lady described the Semi-final encounter with Korea DPR as a sweet victory which should spur the Falconets to beat Germany as a revenge for the 2010 final match which went the way of Germany.

While commending the determination and the patriotic zeal of the Falconets, Patience Jonathan noted that their performance so far in the competition had lent credence to the fact that women can make appreciable impact in the development of the nation.

She, therefore, charged the team to rekindle its hard fighting spirit and work harder to bring the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup to Nigeria.

The First Lady congratulates the team’s top scorer, Aisha Oshoala, for her brilliant performance especially during the 6-2 defeat of Korea DPR.

Patience Jonathan celebrates members of the team and their handlers, urging them to remain focused, determined and committed.
