Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between England and Nigeria is underway.
- 5' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 10' England started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 15' Desire Oparanozie has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 20' The travelling Nigeria supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 25' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with England winning 100% of all matches.
- 30' Nigeria is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 35' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Nigeria needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 40' It looks like no one’s ball. Nigeria is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 45' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 50' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Rachel Daly made 13 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 55' England seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 58' It is a substitution in Nigeria team. Ifeoma Chukwufumnay Onumonu is replaced by Asisat Oshoala on 58 minute.
- 63' England looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker scoring 0 goals.
- 68' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 68 minutes.
- 73' Supporters expect more eagerness from Oluwatosin Demehin, as he is very good at scoring at Suncorp Stadium with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 78' It looks surprising England does not make any changes. Toni Payne has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 81' Francisca Ordega is replacing Uchenna Kanu for the Nigeria side.
- 86' England player sees a card in front of him.
- 88' Chloe Kelly has so much to prove this time. He replaces Alessia Russo on 88 minute.
- Full Time. England beats Nigeria
