FIFA WWC: Oshoala miss out of starting XI as Super Falcons take on England in 16

Super Falcons forward, Asisat Oshoala misses out of the starting eleven as Nigeria takes on England in the second round of the FIFA Womens World Cup.

Nigeria faces the biggest test since facing host Australia in the second game of the group stages.

It’s been a tournament of shocks and surprises so far and Sarina Wiegman’s side will be wary of becoming another after the defending champions United States joined Germany, Canada and Brazil in exiting the competition on Sunday.

England among those who are looking like contenders in Australia and New Zealand. The Lionesses produced a brilliant performance to thrash China 6-1 last time out, so confidence is high among the camp.

Nigeria are dangerous opposition: led by star striker Asisat Oshoala, the Super Falcons stunned Australia and held Canada on their way to qualifying for the knockout stages.
