England were placed third with 15 percent while Germany finished fourth with 15 percent in the four-nation ranking.
The Super Falcons recorded only one win in the group stage against South Korea, losing to Norway and hosts France.
The 2-1 win against the Koreans was enough to see them to scale through to the Round of 16 for the first time since the 1999 edition in the United States of America.
The West Africans however bowed out of the competition in the second round after going down to a 3-0 against two-time world champions Germany.

So why again is NFF introducing a new jersey? How about letting a popular one stick in the football world’s consciousness for say, a decade before probably doing an upgrade?
Exactly bro
Ignorance too much for dis site o. Na NFF dey design Jersey abi kit sponsor? Abeg I no fit laff o.
You mean Nike springs up and designs a kit anytime and anyhow they like it? They don’t need the NFF to commission it or follow the stipulated guidelines in the contract signed with them. How so ‘enlightened’ you are? Why not display your ‘great knowledge’ rather than disparaging other’s comments and revealing more than necessary about you?
You said it all brother , i don’t know why NFF changed the award winning Jersey with that dreadful one ?
Mr. or Mrs Editor, we beat South Korea 2-0 not 2-1.
@ Kel, “commissioning and following guidelines signed in the contract” doesn’t include Jersey designing and templates my oga Sabinus. Wetin u no know u no know am.
