“Your brilliant performance did not go unnoticed despite the final outcome” – Tinubu encourages Super Falcons after England loss

President Bola Tinubu has said that despite crashing out of the ongoing FIFA Women’s World Cup on Monday, the Super Falcons put up a brilliant performance that did not go unnoticed.

The president said this in a tweet a few hours after the Round of 16 game ended at the Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane in Australia.

Reacting to the loss, the president said, “I must commend the effort by our Super Falcons @NGSuper_Falcons at the FIFA Women’s World Cup.

“Your brilliant performance did not go unnoticed despite the final outcome.

“You made Nigeria proud on the global stage!”
