Speaking after the training, Team Captain, Evelyn Nwabuoku, said they are looking forward to the match as it is the first real test since they began their training tour.<\/p>\n

“We are looking forward to the match. The game against Canada is a big one because they are not a small team when it comes to women’s football.

It will be a good test match for both teams,” she concluded.<\/p>\n
