Nikyu’s side were held to a 1-1 draw in the first leg at the Addis Ababa Stadium a fortnight ago.
The 6th FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup finals will hold in Uruguay from the 20th November – 13th December 2018.

Cameroon defeated Algeria 4-0 away in Algiers a forthnight ago.
“We are much prepared even than we were for the first leg in Addis Ababa.
