Falconets foes Congo withdraws from World Cup Qualifiers
Nigeria’s Falconets have advanced to the next stage of the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup Qualifiers without kicking a ball.
This follows the reported withdrawal of opponents Congo Brazzaville.
After Nigeria’s 4-0 victory against Congo in Brazzaville, the return leg was scheduled for 17 December 2021 in Lagos.
In a correspondence to CAF, FECOFOOT expressed the inability of Congo to take part in the next match due to travel challenges.
Therefore, the match was canceled, and Nigeria automatically qualified for the next round.
