African champions, Nigeria’s Super Falcons will now play a Slovakian top division club in Slovakia on Sunday, and not the Slovakia women national team.

Team Administrator Mary Oboduku disclosed that the Super Falcons will be up against ZNK Pomurje Beltinci, which boasts eight players in the Slovakian national squad.

On Tuesday, the Falcons also travelled to Hungary, where they lashed top division club, Halandas Viktoria 5-1 at the Kiraly Sports Centre in Szombathely, with goals from Asisat Oshoala (brace), Chinwendu Ihezuo, Francisca Ordega and Ogonna Chukwudi.
