Super Falcons defender Michelle Alozie has gently reminded Nigerian football fans to extend their support to the women’s national team with the same enthusiasm they show the Super Eagles. Taking to social media after Nigeria’s 1-0 win over Rwanda in the World Cup qualifier, she tweeted:
“All the fans showing up for the Super Eagles game, don’t forget to show up for the Super Falcons too.”
Despite being Nigeria’s most successful team having just captured their record-extending 10th Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title the Falcons often play before smaller crowds than the men’s side. Alozie’s reminder seeks to close that gap and boost female football’s visibility.
Editorial
We couldn’t agree more with Michelle Alozie’s heartfelt plea. Her words shine a light on an essential truth: football’s heartbeat is in its fans, and that rhythm shouldn’t favour one team over another. The Super Falcons have consistently delivered excellence, yet they remain underserved in fan support a disparity rooted not in results, but in perception.

If crowds can fill stadiums to back the Super Eagles, they can certainly gather for the Falcons and should. By turning out in equal numbers, supporters send a message of respect, validation, and belief. The women’s team respond to that energy with goals, grit, and grace. It’s time football fandom evolves.
In Nigeria, where football is more than a sport often a cultural pulse support should transcend gender. As fans, we must answer that call. Because applause should echo for all who make the national jersey their sacred duty.
