On Tuesday, the USA Women will face Nigeria Women in the second of a two-game friendly at Audi Field.
On Saturday, the reigning world champions cruised to a 4-0 victory in the first friendly. Sophia Smith’s first-half brace gave the USA Ladies a 3-0 lead at the half, and Alex Morgan’s second-half penalty completed the rout.
Both teams have qualified for the FIFA Women’s World Cup next year, so the game will serve as a warm-up for the tournament.
The United States’ victory on Saturday extended their unbeaten streak to 20 games, with the team winning the last 12.
Meanwhile, Nigeria has lost three consecutive games, beginning with a penalty shootout loss to Morocco in the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations semi-finals earlier this year.
The USA Ladies have won all six of their previous meetings with Nigeria.
CONCLUSION:
The Super Falcons of Nigeria will look to get back on track when they face the Ladies of the United States of America in a warm-up game later today. The Nigerian female national team is coming off a disappointing 4-0 loss to the American ladies in their most recent match.
KICKOFF TIME: Nigeria versus USA match will go down today at 11PM Nigerian time.
