U-17 WWCQ: Flamingos must improve to beat Benin Republic in second leg – Busari
by Mike Oyebola · Daily PostFlamingos head coach Akeem Busari says his team must improve on their performance against Benin Republic, DAILY POST reports.
Nigeria laboured to a 3-2 victory over the Young Amazons in the first leg of their 2026 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup final qualifying round fixture at the Remo Stars Sports Complex, Ikenne on Saturday.
The second leg is slated for Stade de Kégué in Lomé next weekend.
