When asked if the money had been paid, she responded, “We have not received our money, but hopefully, it will be paid. All the promises, we have not received anything.”

Following the triumph, President Tinubu honoured the players and technical crew with national awards of Officer of the Order of Niger (OON), as well as the promise of $100,000 and a three-bedroom apartment for each team member.
Receiving the squad at the Presidential Villa, Tinubu hailed their resilience, determination, and courage, describing their win as a landmark achievement for Nigeria.
