Nigeria’s Super Falcons have officially unveiled a brand-new jersey featuring 10 stars, celebrating their historic dominance in African women’s football ahead of the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).

Each of the 10 stars on the new kit represents one of Nigeria’s WAFCON triumphs, highlighting the team’s status as the most successful nation in the competition’s history.
