Nigeria will return to action in their second group match at the FIFA U20 Women's World Cup with the singular goal of keeping the title hopes alive.
Following a 2-0 defeat to Spain in their opening game, head coach Moses Aduku has admitted his team is condemned to win.
Speaking in his pre-game presser Aduku noted that lessons have been learnt from their loss against a very good Spanish team, and the team has no excuse now.
The Falconets' coach maintained that the team is aware of what is at stake and would improve in areas where they fell short in the first match.
'We lost the first game and we were not happy. With the second game we are condemned to win. The girls know this; we win or go home.
'Our goal is to correct the mistakes from the Spain game. We created chances but could not convert, we also had to improve on our communication and the girls know now what to do.'
The current standings in Group F has China sitting top of the pile following their 5-0 win over New Caledonia.
