2025 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup: Flamingos Set to Depart for Morocco

Posted : 07 October 2025

Nigeria’s U-17 women’s national team, the Flamingos, will depart Abuja in the early hours of Wednesday, October 8, aboard Royal Air Maroc, as they begin the final phase of preparations for the 2025 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in Morocco.

 

The team is expected to arrive in Casablanca, Morocco’s industrial and economic capital, where they will set up camp before proceeding to Rabat for the main tournament.

 

While in Casablanca, the Flamingos will step up their preparations with two high-profile international friendlies — first against New Zealand on October 10, followed by a match against Paraguay on October 14.

 

After the friendly fixtures, the team will move into the official FIFA hotel in Rabat on October 15, where all participating teams will be accommodated for the competition.

 

Nigeria has been drawn in Group D alongside Canada, France, and Samoa. The Flamingos will begin their campaign against Canada on Sunday, October 19, before taking on France three days later. Both matches are scheduled for 8 p.m. Nigerian time at the Football Academy Mohammed VI in the city of Sale — on Pitch 2 and Pitch 1 respectively.

 

Their final group-stage match will be against Samoa on October 25, with kickoff set for 5 p.m. at the same venue (Pitch 3).

 

Head Coach Bankole Olowookere’s side will head into the tournament brimming with confidence, having played 10 preparatory matches, scoring an impressive 44 goals without conceding any. Their strong form and balanced squad highlight the team’s determination to surpass their quarter-final finish at the last edition in the Dominican Republic.
