The Lekan Salami Stadium in Adamasingba, Ibadan, is set to host the first leg of the 2026 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup third-round qualifier between Nigeria’s Falconets and Senegal.
The match is scheduled for Saturday, 7 February, with the return fixture taking place on Saturday, 14 February.
Moses Aduku’s squad is expected to arrive today, Tuesday, to finalize preparations ahead of the showdown.
The victor of the Nigeria–Senegal clash will progress to the final stage of the African qualifiers, where they will meet the winner of the Guinea-Bissau versus Malawi tie.
The winner of that final round will claim one of Africa’s four spots at the 2026 U-20 Women’s World Cup.
The Falconets, two-time runners-up and former semi-finalists, will aim to continue their impressive continental record. Meanwhile, Morocco is set to host the WAFCON 2026 finals from 17 March to 3 April.
