Revenge Mission: Super Falcons Set for WAFCON Final Duel Against Morocco

Nigeria’s Super Falcons will clash with tournament hosts Morocco in Saturday’s grand finale of the 2025 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON), as both teams battle for continental glory and a record $1 million prize money in Rabat.

The Falcons punched their ticket to the final after a thrilling 2-1 victory over reigning champions South Africa in Casablanca earlier today, showcasing their determination to reclaim Africa’s most prestigious women’s football crown.

On their part, Morocco edged out Ghana’s Black Queens in a tense semifinal decided by penalties. The tie had ended 1-1 after extra time, but the Atlas Lionesses held their nerve to triumph 4-2 in the shootout, reaching back-to-back WAFCON finals.

Saturday’s showdown offers Nigeria a shot at revenge, having been knocked out by the Moroccans in the semifinals of the 2022 edition.

Meanwhile, South Africa and Ghana will battle for third place in Casablanca as the curtain falls on what has been a thrilling tournament.
