Just under two minutes into the game, the Nigerian women's soccer team passed the ball to the Canadian women, who completed a lightning-quick push for an empty net to give the Canadian women a fantastic 1-0 lead.
However, the Canadian women's soccer team then fell into a slump and was passive on the field. In the 23rd and 31st minutes, two consecutive penalties were given away in the penalty area, a handball and a foul, on which the Nigerian women's soccer team relied to bring the score back to 2-1.
In second half stoppage time, the Nigerian women's soccer team added another goal to make the score 3-1.In the end, the Nigerian women's soccer team reversed the Canadian women's soccer team and won three consecutive group stage matches to advance to the last eight with nine points.
The Nigerian women's winning streak also dealt a blow to the Canadian women's soccer team's three consecutive defeats, putting them at the bottom of the table and setting an embarrassing record, even as the Olympic champions suffered a major cold streak.
The list of the top eight teams in this year's World Cup has been released, including Spain, Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, Japan, Netherlands, Nigeria and France. Our women's soccer team failed to finish in the top four in Asia and therefore did not qualify for this World Cup. Only Japan's women's soccer team in the Asian region managed to get out of the group, while Australia and South Korea said goodbye early.
