Nigeria, Jan. 15 -- Nigeria's Super Falcons will return to Morocco in March to defend their Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title after being drawn in a tricky group for the 2026 tournament.

Nigeria won the last edition of the tournament beating hosts Morocco 3-2 in the final in Rabat to claim a record-extending 10th continental title.
