And she was their Best player in that game, if you see the way the Commentator da praise and hype her, He was like no wonder she was nominated for the CAF Best Player of the year…

GeneralDae:

Paris FC doesn't have the kind of defense that can win the champions league from my point of view.

Their defense was good enough to defeat arsenal and Wolfsburg in 2 legs. Those are teams that were expected to make noise in this competition. I think it will all come down to the teams they play in the next rounds. If they get Barcelona early then good night but anyone else would be a toss up. That's of course if they make the next round.

Of course Thembi Kgatlana Market Value isn’t up to $100 but we can’t tell how much Salary she should be earning… If Tigress finds her good enough to earn such amount… Dats Fine!!

Its simple market economics.
Her valuation is at 100K, that's why she's earning that.
No way does a player jump from 100K to 500K 'just because', especially when her valuation is 80% lower.
The owners of Tigres UNAM aren't that generous, especially for a player who is not even in the top 50 players in the world.

Market value and salary are 2 completely different things. U are negotiating with 2 separate parties (the club and the player).

Yes, they are different but one largely determines the other.

And when we say market value in this context, we aren't talking about how much a player is bought for (this isn't even prevalent in women's football as most transfers are free) but how much perceived value a player would bring to the team on and off the pitch.

For example, Alexia's salary negotiation is primarily hinged on what she brings to the table off the pitch. Her brand alone rakes in a lot of money for Barcelona and that's why her new contract is likely to hit €1M.

While doing that, he deliberately (from my observation) had his superfalcon head coach portrait at the back.

Heartland Queen’s defender, Ekezie Onyedikachi handed late call up to U20 women’s national team


Heartland Queens star defender, Ekezie Onyedikachi has been handed a late call up to join the U20 women’s national team ahead of the FIFA U-20 world cup qualifiers against Burundi.

Onyedikachi will be the second Heartland Queens player after Lucky Mary to be called upon to join the Falconets camp ahead of the January fixtures.

Headcoach of the side, coach Christopher Danjuma named his 25 women list ahead of the encounter and has added the Owerri Landladie’s solid rock to the fray.

The bullish and lanky built no nonsense defender has been instrumental to Heartland Queens good run of form lately, which has resulted to Heartland Queens top position on the NWFL premiership group A table.

Onyedikachi so far has featured in all Heartland Queens league game this season and her ever solid wall of defense has maintained 3 cleansheets out of 6 games and only conceded 3 goals so far this season and with one assist to her credit.

Onyedikachi is a young and vibrant defender, full of energy and with ability to dominate area contest. Out of the abundance of defensive talents available to the Coach Obi Ogbala’s side, Onyedikachi has cemented her place as a regular starter for the Owerri Landladies.

Onyedikachi won the WOTM award in Heartland Queens 4-0 pounding of Royal Queens on NWFL match day one at the Dan Anyiam stadium and has since then maintained a high level of performance and form.

Onyedikachi will be joining the rest of squad at the Nigeria Falconet’s team camp on Wednesday December 27th at the federal Capital territory (FCT) Abuja.

Anger at Fifa for its Women’s World Cup tax exemption when players had to pay

By Osasu Obayiuwana
Tue 26 Dec 2023

Fifa has been heavily criticised for negotiating an eight‑and‑a‑half‑year tax exemption for the 2023 Women’s World Cup when the players in Australia ended up paying 32.5% of their match fee income to the country’s tax office (ATO).

Football’s world governing body is exempt from paying tax on any income in or from Australia from 1 July 2020 to 31 December 2028 but, as the Guardian revealed last month, players from several countries were forced to pay almost a third of their match fee income to the ATO. This was in stark contrast to the co-hosts New Zealand, whose Inland Revenue Department exempted Fifa and the players from all taxes.

Kathryn Gill, a former Matildas player and co-chief executive of Professional Footballers Australia, was surprised and disappointed to learn that Fifa had negotiated a tax exemption for itself but not the players.

“While taxation law is complex, the principle of equal and fair remuneration isn’t,” she told the Guardian.


“Given Fifa was able to negotiate withholding tax exemptions with the Australian government to their benefit, it is puzzling that this wasn’t extended to the very people who helped to generate the tournament’s revenues.

“In adopting this approach, the players have been left to shoulder the burden, unlike Fifa who have sought to be the beneficiaries. Our starting point on players’ remuneration at the Women’s World Cup is that prize money should have been equalised back in 2019. This would have resolved many of the issues related to players’ pay that emerged before and after this tournament, and ensured players received a wage that recognised and rewarded them for their central role in the tournament.

“Instead, many of this generation’s players will have to wait another four years to earn the same prize money as male professionals – and that is only if Fifa upholds its verbal commitment.”

Nigeria was one of the countries hit by the tax rules with the Super Falcons players receiving $42,500 of their $60,000 match fees as a result of the ATO deductions. Other teams playing all their games in Australia had the same level of taxation applied to them.

South Africa’s players were even worse off as they have been hit by double taxation – from the South African Revenue Service (SARS) as well as the ATO. While they played most of their games in New Zealand the ATO taxed them pro rata for the days spent in Australia.

“For every match played in Australia, the participating associations had to withhold the tax. SARS will also be coming [for their share] at the end of the tax year, because we didn’t withhold enough,” Lydia Monyepao, chief executive of the South African Football Association, said.

Fifa and its wholly owned subsidiary FWC2023 Pty Ltd received the exemptions in Australia’s Treasury Laws Amendment (Enhancing tax integrity and supporting business investment) Bill 2022.

In chapter two of the amendment’s explanatory memorandum, it says that “Fifa and its wholly owned subsidiary – FWC2023 Pty Ltd – received income tax and withholding tax exemptions from the Australian government, for activities associated with delivering the 2023 Fifa Women’s World Cup … although the exemptions apply retrospectively from 1 July 2020, they are wholly beneficial to the affected entities as they ensure that no income tax is payable on specified income and they also exempt certain withholding tax obligations.”


Asked by the Guardian why it protected its own income but failed to include the players’ match fees in the tax exemption deal, Fifa said it sought a concession for the players but the Australian government refused it.

“Fifa engaged with the relevant parties in both host countries, including the tax authorities on all tax matters – as Fifa does with all tournament hosts – even prior to the hosting appointment being made for the Women’s World Cup 2023,” a Fifa spokesperson said.

“These steps included cooperating with the authorities in Australia directly for the taxation of players to be exempted, which was not ultimately accepted. While Fifa does not agree with the decision, but ultimately will respect it, it is in line with other sporting events that have taken place in Australia.”

With regards to the exemptions granted to its Australian subsidiary, the world governing body said: “The local Fifa subsidiary for the tournament was an entity that was specifically set up to deliver the event in the host countries. It was an entity that had therefore higher expenditure than income, which was funded by Fifa.”

The Australian government, when asked if Fifa had pushed for the players to be exempt from tax, would only say: “The Australian government provided a range of support for the 2023 Fifa Women’s World Cup, including tax concessions in line with previous sporting events.”

Ashleigh Plumptre to is Playing the role of a Player/Coach in this team… Anyways good way for the Saudi League to Develop, but if Ashleigh pack the cash reach one place mk she go back Europe or NWSL till 30+ then can go back.!

However, McCreery had emphasized that the overarching aim of signing Plumptre was to help grow the Saudi women’s game.


As for the Tanzania 🇹🇿 Clara Lavunga who’s so Fast and Physical will she be allowed to Play in the WAFCON just like Barbara Banda and Co??


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoWyc9_mvkA?si=yVFJfl0CN5LnTzyT

Let’s wait and see if she would Play at the WAFCON cause Cameroon U17 onced called her out when her goals eliminated 🇨🇲 from U17 World Cup qualifiers few years ago because of her pace and Strength..

Equatorial Guinea, Zambia, Cote’d’ivoire, Tanzania, Mali are Currently dominating with the use of such Players…

Don’t forget how Hard our U20 was able to beat them of recent

It does and it doesn't. Market value or not if u want a player to leave the US to play in Mexico u will have to give them a financial incentive. Just like Ashleigh moving to Saudi Arabia. U don't expect her to be earning what her mates in England are earning.

She did so well in her days as a goalkeeper. She mad a drama at Accra Sports Stadium in 2004, in the qualifiers for Athens Olympics. Nigeria and Ghana had played 1-1 in Ibadan, while the return leg in Accra also ended 1-1. It went straight to penalty shootout. Memunatu saved the first two penalty kicks by Nigeria, while Ghana scored to stand at 2-0.

At that point, the entire Stadium was in romble, with Memunatu and her teammates celebrating. But Precious Dede came to the rescue of the Super Falcons by saving the last three penalty kicks by Ghana, while Memunatu conceeded. It ended 3-2 in Nigeria's favour.


It was one of the greatest match Memunatu played against the Super Falcons on home soil.

What's the future like for young local managers, male and female, of Nigeria's female teams-

Flamingoes
Falconets


It looks like there's no actual fellow to make us stop recycling old coaches. What's going on? Are there very much younger, technically minded coaches?
