Re: U20 FEMALE WC QUALIFIERS

Well, it’s not been all bad news today…🇳🇬 A squeaker of sorts (we dominated possession and chances) in Abuja against a Tanzanian team that consisted of many of the players from the Tanzanian team that made it to the round of 16 at the 2022 U17 WC in Tanzania’s first-ever WC at any level!

Reminds me of the days when the eagles would party before a big match.. these guys seems to have no hea...

CONGRATS LADIES! 👏🇳🇬🏆🎉
