As the Super Falcons prepare to face Republic of Ireland, their sights are set on securing a place in the knockout round of the FIFA Women's World Cup for the third time.
The West Africans will be taking on Vera Pauw's side at Lang Park, Brisbane, aiming for a strong performance to advance in the competition.
Currently leading Group B with four points from two games, Waldrum's side needs just a single point from the upcoming match to secure a spot in the Round of 16, making it a crucial encounter.
In contrast, Republic of Ireland's hopes for advancement have been dashed, as they have been eliminated from the competition after suffering defeats in their first two games against Australia and Canada.
The Nigerian midfielder expressed unwavering confidence in their team's abilities via Modo Victor, stating, "Yeah, I think they should expect the same performance, if not a better performance from us. Our goal is to improve with each game and secure a victory against Ireland."
With a strong sense of unity among the players, the midfielder emphasized the team's preparedness, saying, "We've been playing together for a couple of years, and with this being the final tournament, we've found a good balance of experienced players and new talents. The cohesion is going really well, and we are prepared."
When asked about personal aspirations, the midfielder set ambitious goals, aiming to deliver their best performance, scoring goals, providing assists, and doing whatever it takes to help the team advance to the next rounds.
The midfielder took a moment to thank the fans, expressing gratitude for their support and urging them to continue following the team's journey, as they are determined to make Nigerians proud on the global stage.
