Opeyemi Ajakaye again emerged Player of the Match following the Flamingos’ 2-1 win against Chile on Monday.
It was Ajakaye’s second consecutive match in the tournament.
Ajakaye was Nigeria’s top scorer during the qualifiers for the 2022 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup and set up Blessing Emmanuel for her side’s opening goal in the fourth minute.
The 16-year-old came close to registering a goal in the 75th minute but her effort hit the crossbar.
She is yet to register a goal for the Flamingos in the competition.
The Nigerian girls finished second in Group B with six points behind Germany, who sit at the summit with nine points.
