Following Nigeria’s Flamingos 2-1 loss to Germany in their group opener, they got their 2022 FIFA U-17 women’s World Cup campaign back on track after a comfortable 4-0 win against New Zealand in their second Group B game on Friday.
First half goals from Amina Bello, Miracle Usani and second half strikes from Taiwo Afolabi and Etim Edidiong earned the Flamingos the deserved win.
The Nigerian side took a deserving lead through Bello in 16 minutes, who headed in a cross from Tumininu Adeshina.
In the 34th minute Usani made it 2-0 before Afolabi added the third goal with 15 minutes left.
And in the 90th minute Edidiong registered the fourth goal to complete the rout.
Meanwhile, Flamingos will face Chile in their final group game on Monday, 17 October.
