Super Falcons earn $60,000 goal bonus after 6-2 win over Egypt in WAFCON 2026

Super Falcons defeated Egypt 6-2 on Wednesday, August 4, 2026, earning a $60,000 goal bonus after the National Sports Commission increased the reward from $5,000 to $10,000 per goal. The announcement came from NFF President Shehu Gusau following the WAFCON 2026 group-stage victory.

The bonus aims to boost morale ahead of the quarter-final clash against Cameroon’s Indomitable Lionesses on Sunday, August 9, in Casablanca. The winner advances to the semi-finals and secures a berth at the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Brazil.

With the team now motivated by the financial incentive, will the bonus translate into a stronger performance against Cameroon, or will the added pressure affect the Falcons’ focus as they pursue World Cup qualification?
