Nigeria’s Super Falcons kicked off their Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) 2025 campaign in strong fashion with a convincing 3–0 victory over Tunisia in their opening Group B match on July 5, 2025 in Morocco. The win set the tone for the Falcons’ bid to extend their continental legacy and reclaim the title after disappointing results in the 2022 edition.
The Falcons dominated possession and created numerous chances throughout the match, showcasing depth and confidence across the forward line. Early control and tactical discipline from coach Justin Madugu allowed Nigeria to impose their rhythm and restrict the Tunisian attack. Although specific goal scorers were not officially detailed in initial reports, extended highlights from broadcasters captured Nigeria’s fluid attacking play, with the team converting multiple opportunities to secure the clean sheet.
This opening win was a key moment in what the team branded Mission X — a focused pursuit of their record‑extending 10th WAFCON title. Analysts noted that Nigeria’s strong performance reflected improvements in squad cohesion and tactical adjustments since the previous tournament.
