“Our victory over Australia was such a sweet one, but I have told the ladies to drive it into the recesses of their minds and concentrate on Monday’s encounter. We need another victory to sustain our winning mentality. We won five of our six qualifying matches with healthy score lines and have now added victory over the Australia,” Danjuma said on the NFF website.

“As I keep saying at every turn, the FIFA World Cup finals here will not be easy. The fact that we are up against the Korea Republic and three-time winners Germany in our first two matches means we need to be at our best physically, mentally and psychologically. 

Physically and mentally, I believe we are in shape. Psychologically, we are good, and we will be great if we defeat the Mexicans to go into the competition unbeaten.”
