Coach Chris Danjuma has called up 26 players to the camp of
the Nigeria’s U-20 female team, Falconets, ahead of this month’s FIFA U-20
Women’s World Cup qualifying cracker against Cameroon’s Junior Lionesses.
The list includes defender and captain Oluwatosin Demehin,
goalkeeper Omini Monle, midfielders Basirat Amoo and Esther Onyenezide, and
forwards Flourish Sebastine, Mercy Idoko and Precious Vincent.
A 15-goal haul in their last three matches has taken the
two-time World Cup finalists to the penultimate round of the African qualifying
series for this year’s finals, which will hold in Costa Rica. The Falconets
hammered their Central African Republic counterparts 7-0 away and 4-0 at home
in the second round, before a 4-0 bashing of hosts Congo in Brazzaville. The
Congolese opted not to travel to Nigeria for the reverse tie.
Cameroon will host the first leg of the penultimate round in
Douala on Sunday, 23rd January, with the return leg to hold at the Mobolaji
Johnson Arena, Lagos a fortnight later.
The winner will have a date with the winner of the fixture
Senegal/Morocco for a slot at the 2022 FIFA Women’s World Cup finals in Costa
Rica in August.
All the invited players have been directed to report at the
Serob Legacy Hotel, Wuye in Abuja on Wednesday, 5th January 2022 with their
training kits and covid19 vaccination cards.
