Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Flamingos captain, Alvine Dah-Zossu has shifted her attention to the side\u2019s next fixture against New Zealand following the defeat to Germany at the FIFA U-17 Women\u2019s World Cup.<\/p>\n

Bankole Olowookere\u2019s girls went down to a 2-1 defeat against the Europeans in their opening fixture at the biennial competition on Tuesday afternoon.<\/p>\n

The Nigerian girls scored the curtain raiser in the game with Miracle Usani firing home a free-kick on the hour mark.<\/p>\n

The determined Germans fought back in the second half netting twice through Svea Stold and Mara Alber.<\/p>\n

Though disappointed with the outcome of the game, Dah-Zossu has rallied her teammates to concentrate on getting their campaign back on track against New Zealand.<\/p>\n

\u201cSadly, we couldn\u2019t win, we gave our all but it wasn\u2019t good enough to earn us victory,\u201dDah-Zossu said after the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not easy to be on the losing side but we will pick ourselves up and bounce back against New Zealand,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The Flamingos will take on New Zealand at the Pandit Jawaharlal Stadium, Goa on Friday.<\/p>\n
