Nigeria's Rasheedat Ajibade and Anam Imo are promising Nigerians that they will not let the country down when they face Spain in the quarter-finals of the Fifa U20 Women's World Cup on Thursday.

The Falconets secured a date with Group C winners La Rojita after they left it late to clinch the runners-up spot in Group D against rivals China in Dinan-Lehon on Monday.

And Ajibade, who played part in Nigeria 2-1 comeback win over the Europeans at the group stage in 2016, is confident that her side will do a repeat this time in Concarneau.

“We are working hard as a team and fully ready for Thursday's match against Spain," the team's captain told Goal.
