The encounter was initially scheduled for Saturday, May 30, but will now take place at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne, Ogun State, with kick-off fixed for 4pm.
The Flamingos head into the decisive return leg in high spirits following a dominant 5-0 victory over Guinea in the first leg played in Abidjan. The emphatic away win has placed Nigeria firmly in control of the tie and on the brink of another step toward qualification for the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup.
Nigeria delivered a ruthless attacking display in the first meeting, underlining the team’s quality and reinforcing their reputation as one of Africa’s strongest sides at youth level. The extra day before the return fixture is expected to give the coaching crew additional time to fine-tune preparations as the team looks to finish the job in front of home supporters.
The Flamingos have consistently remained among Africa’s top-performing teams in the competition and will be aiming to secure safe passage into the next stage of the qualifiers with another commanding performance.
