NFF welcomes Flamingos from FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup

The Nigeria Football Federation has officially welcomed the Flamingos, the U17 Women’s National Team from the Dominican Republic where they represented the country at the 2024 FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup finals.

Despite being eliminated by the United States of America in the quarterfinals, the girls fought hard and were well-received.

Following their tournament run being halted by a 0–2 loss to the USA in Santiago de los Caballeros, the Flamingos’ delegation arrived in Nigeria.

The girls completely dominated Group A, defeating Ecuador 4-0, New Zealand 4-1, and the host country, Dominican Republic, 1-0.

Speaking about their defeat, Head Coach Bankole Olowookere said: “Against the USA, it was simply not our day.
