Falconets head coach, Moses Aduku, is expecting a difficult test against England in their 2026 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup Round of 16 encounter.

The West Africans will battle England for a place in the quarter-finals in Bielsko-Biala on Thursday.

England just like Nigeria finished second in Group B with four points behind Brazil.

It will be another stern test for the Falconets, who started the competition with a 2-0 defeat to Spain.

Nigeria held China to 0-0 draw, before dismantling debutants New Caledonia 10-1.

Aduku reckoned his team will be ready for the challenge.

“It’s going to be a tough test,” Aduku told FIFA.com.

“If you want to be crowned champions, you’ve got to win every game. We’re ready for the challenge.”
