New Zealand coach, Alana Gunn has reacted to his team\u2019s loss to the Flamingos of Nigeria.<\/p>\n
The Young Football Ferns were thrashed 4-1 by the Flamingos in their opening fixture at the 2024 FIFA U-17 Women\u2019s World Cup on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n
The Oceania champions conceded three goals in the first 28 minutes of the encounter.<\/p>\n
Gunn\u2019s side let in another goal 10 minutes after the break.<\/p>\n
Hannah Saxon however reduced the deficit for New Zealand on the hour mark.<\/p>\n
\u201cA goal is massive for us. It\u2019s an awesome achievement from the team and especially for Hannah, she\u2019ll remember that type of moment forever,\u201d Gunn was quoted by FIFA.com after the game.<\/p>\n
New Zealand will take on hosts Dominican Republic in their next game.<\/p>\n
