England’s young lionesses worked hard for a goalless draw against Nigeria on Tuesday in the U17s World Cup Finals in Jordan.
The result leaves them with just two points and needing a victory in their final group game against Brazil on Saturday in order to progress to the knockout Stage of the competition. England are one point behind Brazil, so it is a case of winner takes all.
Group C table looks like this:
