Following their 2-1 defeat to Germany at the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, the Flamingoes have vowed to respond.

The Nigerian girls opened their campaign with a 2-1 defeat against Germany at the Pandit Jawaharlal Stadium, Goa.

Miracle Usani gave Nigeria a first half lead, but Svea Stold and Mara Alber gave the Germans the win.

Alvine Dah-Zossu says the team will bounce back,

“Sadly, we couldn’t win, we gave our all but it wasn’t good enough to earn us victory,”Dah-Zossu said.

“It’s not easy to be on the losing side but we will pick ourselves up and bounce back against New Zealand.”

Bankole Olowookere’s side will face New Zealand on Friday.
