Nigeria, July 8 -- Super Falcons head coach Justine Madugu has downplayed the significance of Nigeria's emphatic 3-0 win over Tunisia in their 2024 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) opener, insisting the best is yet to come from his team.

Nigeria made a bold statement in Casablanca on Sunday, with first-half goals from Asisat Oshoala and Rinsola Babajide, followed by a second-half finish from Chinwendu Ihezuo, sealing a comfortable victory that sent the nine-time champions to the top of Group B.

Algeria, who edged Botswana 1-0 in the other group fixture, trail the Super Falcons on goal difference.

Despite the dominant performance, Madugu emphasised that the team remains a work in progress and is still building towards its peak.
