Captain and Vice-Captain options:

From France, it depends on who plays:

But Valérie Gauvin looks a good option to go with. She got her first start of the competition in the last game, scoring a goal as well, and we expect to start against Nigeria as well. Overall, her performance was good, her link-up play with her teammates, especially with Gaëtane Thiney upfront was incredible.

Amandine Henry – Team’s captain and a real star in the middle of the park. Her technical ability and the ability to read the game is phenomenal. Against Nigeria’s physical presence and pace, the 29-year-old defensive midfielder will be playing a key role. She can pop up with a goal as well, as was the case in France’s 4-0 win over South Korea in the opening game.

Asisat Oshoala: The star of Nigeria’s run to the FIFA U-20 final in 2014, where she bagged both the Golden Boot and Golden Ball awards, is a vital cog in her team’s attacking arsenal.
