Nigeria crashed to a humiliating 6-0 loss to Japan in their opening FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup game in Papua New Guinea Sunday.
In the other Group B match, Spain beat Canada 5-0.
Japan simply outclassed Nigeria’s Falconets, who have reached the final of the last two editions of this competition.
Nigeria goalkeeper Sandra Chichi, who also featured at the 2014 tournament, was disastrous.
Japan led 2-0 at halftime, before they turned on the heat in the second by firing four more goals including an own goal by Mary Ologbosere.
Their next match is on Wednesday against Canada. (mtnfootball.com)
