Nigeria U-20 women’s national team head coach Moses Aduku has declared that the Falconets are “condemned to win” against China as they look to revive their FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup campaign in Poland.
The Falconets suffered a 2-0 defeat to Spain in their opening Group F fixture, leaving them under pressure ahead of their second group game against China.
Aduku admitted that the result was disappointing, but stressed that his players have quickly shifted their focus to the crucial encounter, knowing that anything short of victory would leave their qualification hopes in danger.
Speaking to the media ahead of the game, the coach said the Falconets understand the importance of the contest and have been working to address the shortcomings from their opening defeat.
“Yea, we lost the first game, initially we were not happy but, this is football; you win some, lose some, draw some.
