Despite the winter conditions in Blida, on the outskirts of the Algerian capital, Algiers on Friday night, the U17 girls of Nigeria dug their feet on the ground and achieved a goalless draw that described them for the finals of the FIFA U17 World Cup FIFA of FIFA U17 this year.
Clinging to a 4-0 advantage in the first leg, 2002 bronze medalists adopted a quiet and collected pattern that easily soaked the expected pressure of the hosts, and then trusted quick breaks to try to tighten the trigger of their opponents.
Although they created the best opportunities at night, the flamenco could not do the domain in the payment of possession, but quickly collected the ticket to Morocco in an aggregate victory of 4-0.
The difference on two legs of the final round was a remarkable exhibition in the opening leg by the flamenco, during which an orthopedic device of Queen José, and one by Zainab Raji and the substitute Aisha Animashaun secured a 4-0 victory.
The flamenco will now be one of the five representatives of Africa (including the hosts of Morocco) in the FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup finals this year that will take place from October 17 to November 5. The final competition will entertain 24 teams for the first time.
Since the FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup competition was launched in New Zealand in 2008, Nigeria has failed to reach the final only once, the 2018 tournament organized by Uruguay.
