Super Falcons defender Ngozi Ebere and striker Desire Oparanozie made the list of top 46 players from the FIFA World Cup 2015 despite a disappointing campaign at the Tournament by the Falcons.

The compilation which was released by high profile American female football site, womensoccerunited.com, yesterday also had Cameroonian player Gaelle Enganamouit who became the first African woman to score a hat-trick at a World Cup in the Indomitable Lionesses 6-0 thrashing of Ecuador, as well as Ivorian goalkeeper Dominique Thiamale who proved her worth as a fine shot stopper despite her country's woeful performance.

- World Cup 2015: Japan survive late Dutch scare, advance to quarterfinals
 - Women's World cup 2015: US silence colombia as English lionesses also make history...
 - Fifa Women's World Cup 2015: Canada, France Qualify for Quarter-Finals, Australia stun Brazil to join them
- Women's World cup 2015: Germany march into Quaterfinals, suffocate Sweden
- Women's World Cup 2015: China sends Cameroon packing to keep tournament hopes alive

The Super falcon players' inclusion in this revered list remain the only bright spot in what turned out to be the Falcons' worse ever international outing as the country's football governing body, NFF, ponders axing coach Edwin Okon which i think they should do ASAP! for a reputable European manager that will take the team to the next level after dominating the African continent for years.
