Nigeria’s U-17 Women’s National Team, the Flamingos, have stepped up preparations for the 2025 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in Morocco with two friendly wins at the FIFA Goal Project, Abuja.
In the first game, the Flamingos edged Eagle’s Wing U-13 Boys 1–0 thanks to an early strike from Fatimoh Shuaib, who calmly slotted home after a neat exchange with Tabitha Terlumu.
Despite sustained pressure from their opponents, goalkeeper Elizabeth Boniface and her defense held firm to secure the narrow win.
Later in the day, the Flamingos returned to action against Harmony FA U-13 Boys, sealing a comfortable 3–0 victory. Zainab Raji opened the scoring after pouncing on a defensive error, before Olamide Olanrewaju tapped in the second goal.
Substitute Favour Etim made an instant impact, adding the third to complete a dominant performance, even though Terlumu saw her penalty kick saved.
With these results, the Flamingos have showcased both resilience and attacking sharpness. All called-up players remain in camp ahead of the World Cup (Oct. 17–Nov. 8), where they will face Canada, France, and Samoa in Group D.
