'We have to fight" - Burundi talks tough ahead of 'dream match' vs TeamNigeria

Nigeria's Super Falcons have an important date later tonight with their counterparts from Burundi, the Swallows.

The beautiful Rabat Moulay El Hassan Sports Complex will host the final Group C match between Nigeria and Burundi.

Nigeria's Super Falcons kicked off their journey to a tenth title by losing 2-1 to the Banyana Banyana of South Africa in their group opener.

But the team has since bounced back to get that journey off the mark and back on track following a 2-0 victory over another debutant, Botswana.

For Burundi, back-to-back defeats mean the Swallows are on the brink of elimination heading into the final game of the group stages.

With a place in the last eight at stake, both sides cannot afford to lose when they go head-to-head tonight in Rabat.

Nigeria's Super Falcons have dominated the WAFCON but will face a very determined first-timer in Burundi.

While the Falcons have the edge based on their experience, the Swallows have promised to make amends after two defeats and will fight to the end according to one of their star players, Nahimana.

“We are going to play against a very experienced team at WAFCON, we want to correct our past mistakes made in the previous two games we have played so far and we hope to do well,” Nahimana told CAFONLINE.com

"Today's match is my dream match and playing against a great team like Nigeria is a great opportunity," she added. "For us, as players, we have to go and fight as a team and do it with respect for our country."
