WAFU B U17 Girls’ Cup: Chidi’s hat-trick confirms Flamingos’ semi-final clash with Benin

Posted : 18 December 2024

Scoring sensation Harmony Chidi netted a hat-trick as Nigeria edged Côte d'Ivoire 3-2 in their second match of the WAFU B U17 Girls’ Cup in Accra.


Chidi, who scored 13 of the 25 goals as the Flamingos dominated Africa on their way to the FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup finals in the Dominican Republic this year, took matters into her own hands to ensure Nigeria finished top of Group B in the inaugural competition.

Following their 9-0 thrashing of Niger Republic on Thursday, the Flamingos completed their group campaign with the maximum six points, scoring 12 goals and conceding only two, while Côte d'Ivoire, 5-0 winners over the Nigeriens, finished second with three points and seven goals for, three against.


The Nigeriens finished without a point, failing to score a goal and conceding 14.


The young Ivorian girls will face hosts Black Maidens of Ghana in the first semi-final of the competition on Thursday, followed by the second semi-final, where FIFA World Cup quarter-finalists Nigeria will tackle neighbors Benin Republic at the Ghana Centre of Excellence in Prampram.


Esther Kwame, who scored Côte d'Ivoire's first goal against Nigeria with a long-range shot in the 56th minute, and Guasam, who converted a penalty to reduce the deficit five minutes later after a foul by Rokibat Azeez, could pose a challenge for the Black Maidens on Thursday.
