Wogu's sublime volley in the 43rd minute made the difference as Omagbemi's side secured victory in the keenly-contested clash with the hard-fighting Falconets.

"It is a confidence boost for the girls as we continue to prepare for Cameroon," Omagbemi told media.

"We are using the matches to screen players and so expected everyone to give their best. As a team we must remain focus and determined in their preparations.

I'm happy with the performance of the girls, i'm sure by the time we have the rest of the foreign based players and some homebased from the Federation Cup. There will be a lot of improvement." (goal.com)
