Flamingos head coach, Bankole Olowookere has said his team is highly motivated to do the double over Algeria.

The Nigerian girls will take on Algeria in the second leg of the 2025 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup final qualifying round tie at the Stade Mustapha Tchaker in Blida on Friday.

Olowookere’s side won the first leg 4-0 at the Remo Stars Stadium, Ikenne last weekend.


The Flamingos were rewarded with N6m by the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, and billionaire businessman, Kunle Soname after the game.

President of NFF, Ibrahim Musa Gusau and Soname have both confirmed that the same financial incentives are in place for the second leg.

“Our objective is clear – to win the FIFA World Cup ticket. That is the big motivation. Yet, we have been further incentivised by the monetary rewards. My girls will go all out on Friday night,” Olowookere told theff.com.
