England forward, Chloe Kelly reckons the Lionesses must be at their best to beat Super Falcons in Monday’s Round of 16 encounter.



Sarina Wiegman’s side are unbeaten at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup, winning all three group games.

The European champions are overwhelming favourites to win the contest.

Kelly, however, acknowledged the Super Falcons will be a tough nut to crack.

“We’re looking forward to it,” she told BBC Radio 5 Live.
“A different test again and in world football playing against different opposition is amazing so we’re all looking forward to it.”

The encounter slated for Lang Park, Brisbane will kick off at 8:30 am Nigerian time.
