Super Falcons’ 10th WAFCON title sparks national pride, corporate praise

Nigerian beer brand Goldberg Lager has commended the Super Falcons for their record-breaking 10th Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title, describing the team’s latest achievement as a moment of pride for the entire nation.

Nigeria edged hosts Morocco 3-2 in a thrilling final at the Olympic Stadium in Rabat on Saturday night, reaffirming their dominance in African women’s football and solidifying their place as the most successful team on the continent.

In a post-match statement, Goldberg—produced by Nigerian Breweries—hailed the Super Falcons’ victory as a “true symbol of Nigerian resilience and pride,” and praised the players for their discipline, unity, and determination throughout the tournament.

“The Super Falcons have once again shown why they remain the pride of Africa,” said Titilayo Famodimu, Brand Manager at Goldberg.

“Their strength and unity reflect the spirit of true champions, and we celebrate this remarkable milestone with them and with Nigerians everywhere.”

Nigeria’s road to the title included a dominant 3-0 win over Tunisia in the group stage and a hard-fought semi-final against South Africa.

The final in Rabat proved to be a test of experience and resolve, with the Super Falcons holding off a spirited Moroccan side buoyed by home support.

While Goldberg’s message joins a chorus of national celebration, the company also highlighted its ongoing role in promoting women’s football.

Over recent years, Nigerian Breweries has backed initiatives aimed at boosting female participation in sports—from grassroots development to national team support.

In previous campaigns, Goldberg has featured female athletes in its advertising and sponsored platforms that elevate women’s sports.

The brand noted that the Super Falcons’ win resonates beyond the pitch, inspiring countless young girls who dream of donning the green and white jersey.

“We believe in the power and potential of Nigerian women in sport. This win belongs to every young girl who dares to dream. We remain committed to supporting pathways that help them realise those dreams,” Famodimu added.

The win comes as the team continues to gain recognition both for their on-field performances and off-pitch influence in shaping the narrative around women’s football across Africa.

As the nation celebrates this milestone, the Super Falcons’ latest triumph serves as a powerful reminder of the heights achievable through dedication, teamwork, and a platform that supports excellence—on and off the field.
