Speaking ahead of the encounter, Justine Madugu reiterated that the goal remains to qualify and retain the title as defending champions with qualification to the World Cup the ultimate dream.

“We are looking forward to a tough game from the Beninoise, but we will be ready for that by putting up a good performance with the ultimate goal of qualification to the 2026 Women AFCON, where we hope to retain our title and further qualify for the World Cup in Brazil in 2027.

“The Amazons with about 10 professional players from Germany, Morocco, France and Equatorial Guinea gave a good account of themselves in the first leg, to underscore the fact that underrating any team now in Africa could be at your own peril.

“We are not taking anything for granted or leaving anything to chance. We will be ready to go all out for victory.”
