The next FIFA Women’s World Ranking update is scheduled for June 12, 2025, just weeks before the 2024 WAFCON.

Eto’o, a four-time African Player of the Year and the all-time top scorer in the history of the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), took time to meet and encourage the young Nigerian players.

Olise, a former Edo Queens captain, will now aim to cement her place in the Trabzonspor squad as the season progresses.

The federation is making strategic preparations for these events, including team selection, logistics, and intensive training programs to ensure Nigerian fencers perform at their best.

Arne Slot had warned his players they would need to “suffer” against PSG, and that prophecy played out as Liverpool were dominated for much of the match.

“FIFA needs to involve its stakeholders, like the NWSLPA and NWSL, for an event like this to reach its potential. Otherwise, they are hamstringing women’s football yet again like they’ve done since time immemorial.”

With this context, the FLP appears to have set an example with Fonseca, enforcing a punishment that many believe is meant to send a message rather than fit the crime.

Liverpool, currently 13 points clear at the top of the Premier League, will also have a chance for revenge when they host Everton in the return leg at Anfield on April 2.

The 23-year-old forward earned the prestigious award after delivering decisive goals in key matches, further cementing her reputation as one of the league’s most in-form attackers.

The 40-year-old reached the mark in style, draining a 25-foot three-pointer off a Luka Doncic assist early in the first quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers’ 136-115 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night.
