The team which has been in a camp in Abuja for more than two months now is among the 24 female football teams representing 24 countries that will take part in this year\u2019s FIFA U-20 Women\u2019s World Cup taking place in Colombia.<\/p>\n<p>According to Umuaka Times correspondents in Bogot\u00e1, the capital city of Columbia, Nigeria is in Group D alongside with Germany, Venezuela and Korean Republic. For the African continent, Nigeria, Morocco, Cameroon and Ghana will be representing Africa in the tournament which begins from August 31 and ends on September 22.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15783\" src=\"http:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_20240818_100529.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"594\" height=\"323\" srcset=\"https:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_20240818_100529.jpg 594w, https:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_20240818_100529-300x163.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 594px) 100vw, 594px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The football matches will also be hosted in four stadia in three cities in the country.
