Frequent player changes cost Nigeria at Women's World Cup - Ngozi Okobi

Ngozi Okobi says the frequent changing of players was to blame for the struggles of Nigeria's senior women's team at the Women's World Cup tournaments.

Okobi has featured twice at the senior Women's World Cups - at Canada 2015 and France 2019 and also won four in five appearances at the African Women's Cup of Nations, with Nigeria.

The 26-year-old played a vital role in the Super Falcons' success at the last three continental events and also starred at the World Cup in France where they reached the Round of 16 last year.
