Falconets starting line-up

The Nigerian U-20 female team, the Falconets will be having an unchanged line-up from the first match for the game against China which kicks off at 4pm local time, Sunday, a game the team needs to win to confirm her place in the quater-finals, reports nigeriasports.com.

The only alteration to the list will be in the attack where injured Tawa Ishola will be replaced by Ogiagbehva Emueje.

Tawa Ishola had scored the opening goal for Nigeria in the first game against Canada but became the victim of some tough tackling from the CONCACAF representatives.

Titi Mekuleyi who was in the centre of the mid-field for the Falconets but didn't have a good game and had to give way for Eke Maureen in the second half is also back in the starting line-up.

No Nigerian player was carded in the first game so there is no risk of losing any player to cards ahead of the last game against Finland.

THE LINE UP:

12 Bulus Christy, 2 Chikwelu Rita, 3 Sabi Akudo, 6 Ikidi Faith, 7 Akpa Gladys, 9 Iwuagwu Akudo, 10 Mekuleyi Titilayo, 20 Ogiagbehva Emueje, 16, Jerome Ulumma, 17 Akusobi Blessing, 18 Uwak Cynthia.

Reports Opatola Adewole, Moscow, Russia.
