Nigeria at the FIFA Women's World Cup

For the men's team, see Nigeria at the FIFA World Cup.

The Nigeria women's national football team has represented Nigeria at the FIFA Women's World Cup at all nine stagings of the tournament,[1][2] one of seven teams to do so. Despite the rich history, however, Nigeria's successes have been rather modest, having only progressed to the knockout phase in three occasions.
