After dispatching Ethiopia, the Super Falcons will in February tackle Cameroon in the next round of qualifiers for the 2024 Paris Olympics before a final playoff against either South Africa or Tanzania.
The Falcons have failed to qualify for the Olympics for the past 15 years.
On Tuesday in Abuja, they saw off Ethiopia 5-1 on aggregate to set up a Titanic clash against Cameroon between February 19 and 28, 2024.
The Indomitable Lionesses overturned a 2-0 loss in Uganda by winning 3-0 at home after extra time.
Nigeria have won five and drawn one of their head-to-head meetings against Cameroon.
The Super Falcons pipped their Cameroonian rivals 1-0 when both teams last clashed at last year’s WAFCON in Morocco in July.
The overall winners of the third round clash between Nigeria and Cameroon will then have to playoff against the winners of another third round clash between South Africa and Tanzania to book the flight to Paris next summer.
