Super Falcons Tuesday at the Main bowl of the Abuja National stadium forced a Suleja based male football academy, Santos to a 1-1 draw in a tune up game.
The game started on a fast note with the boys dictating the pace but Falcons stood their ground until
the 10th minute when Abubakar Garau ran on to a loose ball to beat goalkeeper Ibubeleye Whyte with a low shot.
Falcons fought back with foreign imports Asisat Oshoala and Oparanozie Desire leading the onslaught but failed to score as they went on break with the boys leading.
Francesca Ordega drew level for the Super Falcons in the 58th minute when she volleyed in from a pullout by Ugo Njoku. Both teams lost some scoring chances created.
Coach Edwin Okon expressed satisfaction with the performance of the team adding that the essence of the game is to correct the flaws of the game in Mali.
