Super Falcons head coach Randy Waldrum remains optimistic his side will put up a good performance at the 2024 Olympic Games despite their defeat to Canada on Wednesday.

Waldrum’s side fell to a 1-0 defeat against the reigning Olympic champions.

Jordyn Huitema’s eighth minute strike separated both teams on the night.

The American declared that the lesson learnt from the game would be valuable for his team in Paris.

“Obviously, you would like to win with results at the end of the day but I think our performance was a very positive performance. We were very good in the attacking phase, our possession was good,” Waldrum was quoted by Afrik Foot.

“I thought it was a much better performance than we had in the World Cup against them (Canada). We created more chances against them than we did at the World Cup. I have seen a lot of improvement since the World Cup until now.

“Even though I am disappointed with the one mistake, we turned the ball over in a bad place, I thought we were good today.

“A lot of questions I had were answered today, including the penalty kicks. I am confident as we head to Paris for the Olympics.”

The Super Falcons will face a formidable challenge at the Olympics where they will compete against powerhouses Brazil, Spain, and Japan.
