Nigeria’s Flamingos have qualified for the 2024 FIFA women’s U-17 World Cup in Dominican Republic.
The Flamingos sealed qualification after defeating Liberia 2-0 in the second leg of the final qualifying round on Friday at the MKO Abiola Stadium Abuja.
A brace from Harmony Chidi earned her side a 6-1 aggregate win after winning the first leg 4-1 in Monrovia.
Chidi opened the scoring in the 4th minute before adding the second goal on 63 minutes.
This is the Flamingos’ seventh appearance at the U-17 World Cup since making their debut at the inaugural edition in 2008.
At the 2022 edition in India, the Flamingos finished third which is their best ever performance at the World Cup.
The Flamingos and two other African countries will represent the continent at this year’s edition which will run from 16 October to 3 November.
