'It’s going to be a difficult one' - Falode on Nigeria's chances in maiden Caf Women's Champions League

Aisha Falode believes Nigeria can extend its superiority to the Caf Women's Champions League, though admits winning the inaugural event will not come easy for the West Africans.

In July, Caf announced the inauguration of the Champions League for women, which will be held annually and during the second half of the year, with eight clubs competing in the finals in 2021.

For a Nigerian club to claim the title, the team must emerge 2020-21 domestic champions and move on to win the Wafu B regional play-off to earn the ticket to feature in the eight-club final.
