Young Lionesses need to win against Brazil

  • +1

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.
