    FIFA U17 Women W’Cup: Nigeria Sets Up Quarterfinal Tie Against USA

    Shakirat Moshood’s 89th minute goal following a strike from 24 yards out helped Nigeria’s Flamingos to a 1-0 defeat of Dominican Republic, the hosts of FIFA Under-17 Women’s World Cup late Tuesday in Santo Domingo.

    The win in the final match of Group A at the FIFA Under-17 Women’s World Cup ensured that Nigeria will face Group B runners-up U.S in the quarter-finals on Saturday.

    The Flamingos found the going tough under driving rain against the determined hosts and could not make their overwhelming ball possession count for long.

    But with a minute left on the clock Moshood, now with four goals, unleashed a rocket from outside the penalty box for the lone goal.

    Home captain Renata Mercedes and goalkeeper Rondon led a famous resistance against Nigeria, who are now one of the elites of the competition, and the hosts deserved praise for their pushback.

    It was a performance which ensured the Flamingos made nothing out of 16 corner-kicks.

    Nigeria Head Coach Bankole Olowookere made three changes to the starting line-up, bringing in Rokibat Azeez, Blessing Ifitezue and Ramotalahi Kareem, for Onyedikachi Ekezie, Peace Effiong and Harmony Chidi.
