Flamigos, the Nigeria Women U17 national team will slug it out against Guinea in February in the CAF U17 Women’s World Cup qualifier.
Guinea, who bounced out Guinea-Bissau after an 8-0 triumph on aggregate will test their might against Nigeria next month.
According to Goal.com, the Falconets will in the first round of the U20 Women’s World Cup qualifier in March, take on either Burkina Faso or Gambia, with the former holding a 3-2 first-leg advantage.
With barely a month to the qualifiers, an NFF top official disclosed that a new set of coaches will be named for the women’s teams with camping activities expected to commence in the coming days.
“We [Nigeria Football Federation] have made recommendations on the coaches for the women’s national teams,” the NFF technical director Bitrus Bewarang told Goal on Monday.
“We are meeting with the NFF technical committee to get their approval of the appointments. The technical department, with a group of coaches, has been working to get players within the age bracket.
“I can confirm that the teams will resume their camping preparations on or before Wednesday, January 29 this week.”
