Late equaliser denies Nigeria victory
Mary Mamudu continued her impressive scoring form by putting Nigeria’s U20 women’s team ahead on Tuesday afternoon. South Korea, however, restored parity from the penalty spot with 12 minutes remaining.
The result followed Nigeria’s 1-0 victory over hosts Poland in Brzeg on Friday, giving the 2010 and 2014 World Cup runners-up a positive final preparation before their tournament opener against a determined Spain side in Sosnowiec on Monday evening.
