Title: Flamingoes ready to take chances against France
Post by: Sunexx360 on Oct 04, 2012, 01:25 PM
NIGERIAN U-17 women team, Flamingoes, has been something of a revelation in the ongoing Azerbaijan 2012 FIFA Women World Cup going by its confidence, high scoring form and fast pace in the games played so far.
   However, in today's quarter-final cracker against France in Baku, coach Peter Dedevboplans to present an even slicker Flamingoes outfit.
     The Nigerians scored 15 goals over three games in Group A, but while the majority may have come in their 11-0 victory over the hosts, they were far from efficient in taking chances, an issue Dedevbo is keen to eradicate before Thursday's quarter-final.
   "We create chances and that's the most important thing, as there are some teams that play and don't create chances, and if you don't create you don't score goals," the Nigerian coach told FIFA.com.
    "In our first game against Canada, we had all the chances but threw them away. After that match against Canada, we pretty much went back to the drawing board to work on our finishing, which we did, and it paid off somewhat against Azerbaijan.
     "One thing I will want to take into the quarter-finals is to continue to improve our quality in front of goal. We don't know how many chances we will make, but if we createfive chances against France, we want to takefour."
