Sweden has flogged the Cup bearer, USA and they are out by penalty shoot out.

If only African teams can move with courage, confidence, not showing too much respect to their 'colonial masters' on the field and dare some shots, they will survive this round.

Favor upon Super Falcons as anything can just happen.

Bros calm down, Lauren James didn't play that day to spark her team win with a wide goal margin.

That girl is a threat to her opponents, a beast as far as female football is concern.
Super falcons should watch out for her

She came on against Haiti, any good player would look world class if you are given the time and space she was.

China were inept in that game, backing off her, especially the defence and their akpere keeper diving downwards all the time.

'England to win' has smaller odds .So,a big gambler can't go towards that direction.

AUNZ Round of 16 Preview :How Nigeria can pull an Independence Day

Nigeria have had a wonderful start to this yearโ€™s World Cup, an opening day 0โ€“0 draw with Canada followed by a 3โ€“2 comeback over hosts Australia to get the vibes going. However a failure to send debutants Ireland home pointless with a 0โ€“0 draw means upon escaping Her Majestiesโ€™ Group of Death theyโ€™ve booked an appointment with the Queen herself and will be taking on much fancied European champions England in Brisbane. The defensively robust Falcons will be facing on a side that put 6 past their last opponents so lets take a look at how they might claim another scalp.

Sarina Weigmanโ€™s side were very well known for fielding the same XI in every game in their run to the Euros title last year. However life is dynamic and has forced Weigman to be the same; a middling opening game performance led to some turn over in the second wherein they lost superstar metronome Kiera Walsh, leading to a whole system change in their final group game. Itโ€™s uncertain if there will be changes once again seeing as Weigman has confirmed Walshโ€™s availability but considering how rampant they were last time out, and a desire to have Walsh recover properly, weโ€™ll assume Wiegman will stick to her shiny new guns.

Having lost Walsh (and prior opponents figuring them out prior to that), England have had to rethink their progression plan no longer playing through the center of the pitch choosing to utilize their wingbacks as the main strategy. In build up the CFs will pin the defenisve line back and the WBs will stay high and wide on both flanks to stretch the pitch thus the opposition block canโ€™t access all threats without losing compactness. Meanwhile the centre backs will circulate the ball along the back line occasionally bouncing the ball of a midfielder whoโ€™ll drop in front of the defensive block with the aim of forcing the block to tilt to one side allowing Bright/Greenwood find the opposite wingback in space. This switch would then bait the FB to confront and since there are 2 forwards to pin the CBs they would be unable to cover allowing the WB to play into a massive gap in the channel that the 8 or CF can attack and then get a cross or cut back in. These crosses were Englandโ€™s primary form of chance creation with them attempting 17 in total, 10 from their CFs/8s and 5 from WBs. The danger of the WBs coming in from the fullbacks blind side at the farpost along with 2 other targets in the box made them a very credible threat with half the goals against China coming from open play crossing scenarios. If the English CBs were unable to find the deep pass for the WBs then the near side one would drop to support usually creating two avenues; either the defensive block tried to close them down freeing up the far side WB or the nearside 8/CF would promptly attack the vacated wide channel (should note that on the left Lauren James would occasionally make the drop to allow Daly attack depth).

Visualization of the aforementioned English attacking plan
How England utilize their wingbacks to create chances
Pass action map for Bronze and Daly vs China
You can see the two main actions the English wingbacks took part in, circulation (blue) and passes down the line (yellow). From Opta
Their other main offensive threat was the counter press, they were very ruthless at winning the ball back and closing down passing options. When high and wide in final third Englandโ€™s WCBs, Carter and Greenwood, would be high up the pitch as a passing option but their primary directive seemed to be to immediately press up on Chinaโ€™s attack outlet on that wing when possession was lost. The rest of the England team would also pick off possible passing options while trying to herd the Chinese player into as much English traffic as possibly, even if the ball wasnโ€™t won it would buy time for the far side WB to retreat and form a back 4. However they did still let China through due to the centrebacks aggressive nature leading to space in behind though Millie Bright was up to the task of sweeping in behind. England spent majority of the time off the ball counter pressing (25%) or in transition (33%).




Englandโ€™s Turnovers, Regains and Pressure maps vs China. The high number of actions in wide areas are of note, especially the pressures from behind on the left wing where Bronze was always quick to recover
Based on the above I would have Nigeria line up in their usual 4โ€“2โ€“3โ€“1. Nnadozie and the back 4 of Plumptre, Demehin, Ohale and Alozie retain their places along with Ayinde, Ucheibe and Payne. Iโ€™d have Ajibade start in the role sheโ€™s shown the most promise in, on the left. The last 2 spots are were things might get contentious. Uchenna Kanu has done a solid job in the last 2 games scoring against Australia and coming closest to breaking the deadlock with the Irish however Mondayโ€™s cameo showed better qualities towards the plan in mind. At 9 dropping Oshoala would be big call but Iโ€™d rather have Super Zee come in as a super sub and finish the game on the pitch considering the questions about her fitness. Desire Oparanozie would have been my first choice but with little news on whether she's fit enough to play Onumonu is good enough stand-in for reasons weโ€™ll get to later.
