Nigeria’s U-17 women’s national team known as the Flamingos recorded a 4-0 victory against their counterparts from Egypt in a 2022 African U-17 Women’s World Cup Qualifying Tournament fixture played at the MKO Abiola Stadium in Abuja on Sunday, April 17, 2022.
Opeyemi Ajakaye scored in the 28th minute to put the Flamingos ahead, before Omowunmi Bello doubled the lead in the 38th minute.
Miracle Usani fired in the third with a low shot in the 54th minute, before Omowunmi Bello completed the rout with her brace in the 62nd minute.
The Head Coach of the U-17 Women National Team of Egypt, Mohamed Mohsen believes his side can overturn the four-goal deficit and blame the inexperience of the referee as what changed the course of the game.
Both teams clash again in Cairo on the last day of this month, with the winner most likely to play Ethiopia in the final round of the series for a ticket to the FIFA World Cup in India. Ethiopia trounced South Africa 3-0 away from home on Saturday.
