2025 FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup: Flamingos beat Paraguay in five-goal thriller

Nigeria’s U-17 women’s national team, the Flamingos, rounded off their pre-World Cup preparations in style with a hard-fought 3–2 victory over Paraguay in Casablanca on Tuesday evening.

It was a match filled with pace, precision, and plenty of lessons as Coach Bankole Olowookere’s girls sealed their 12th warm-up game, extending their scoring tally to an impressive 50 goals while conceding just six.

With their Morocco training camp now concluded, the Flamingos headed to Rabat yesterday to settle into their FIFA accommodation ahead of the 2025 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup, which kicks off tomorrow.

Drawn in Group D, Nigeria will open their campaign against Canada on October 19, then face France three days later, before wrapping up the group stage against Samoa on October 25.
