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.

“The girls created opportunities but the ball just wouldn’t go in. The Americans took their chances, and that is football for you.

“We will start work immediately at raising an even stronger team for the next edition, as the tournament is now annual and the work must start now.”

The FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup in the Dominican Republic will be the final one to be held every two years; after next year, the championship will be held annually, with Morocco hosting the next edition in 2025.
