Super Falcons head coach Justin/Justine Madugu says the team’s defence is underperforming at the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco and says he will work on correcting it before the next match against Cameroon. Multiple reports describe the Super Falcons as having struggled defensively, despite producing strong results in attack. One outlet notes that Madugu is concerned about a “leaky defence” and has pledged to address the issue ahead of Cameroon. Another report adds context from the group stage: while the Falcons are reported to have scored the most goals in the tournament at nine, they also concede five goals across three group matches. The same reporting frames this defensive record as inconsistent with the team’s offensive output and highlights Madugu’s intent to tighten performance going forward. Overall, the sources agree that the Falcons have both the capacity to score and a pressing defensive problem, which Madugu is prioritizing for the remainder of the competition.
