The Arna-Bjornar star, who starred in the Super Falcons' win over Algeria, earned a late invitation for Monday's clash and trained with the team on Sunday afternoon.After forcing Les Femelles Elephants to a 0-0 draw in Abidjan on Thursday, the African champions must defeat Clementine Toure's side to keep their hopes alive for progression on Monday.
And the 28-year-old defender is poised to inspire her mates to a home victory against the Ivorian side, who harbour the quest of progressing with a vital result at Agege Stadium.
"I wasn't in the first leg, but I believe the team really did their best to get a draw in Abidjan," Ebere told Goal.
"Notwithstanding, I think Nigerian fans should expect nothing but victory. I think that we have an advantage over them because we are playing at home. That alone gives us a lot of confidence.
"Playing in the Olympics is a dream of every sportswomen and men and we haven't been there for a long time now. So we are determined to give our best to make it come next year."
Ebere and her mates will be hoping a win in this encounter on home turf will move them to the fourth round of the qualifiers.
