Ajakaye came close to registering a goal a couple of times in the game.

Aminat Bello, Miracle Usani, Taiwo Tewogboola and Edidiong Etim were all on target for the Flamingos.

Victory gave Nigeria three precious points, and stand them in good stead for qualification if they defeat Chile on Monday afternoon at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar.

    A draw instead is what is needed to seal a place in the next round.

  • In all my life watching all grades of National teams never seems such a wasteful side.They had close to 35 opportunities and scored only 4,infact only two of the last goals were great goals,the other two were just the goalkeepers fault.

    • I doubt they would go far. Short, aimless passes, with Mosaku the major culprit. 15 shots on target. Several one on one situations were missed. NFF should really have grassroots football because these lasses are poor shooters and slow thinking
