How to watch the Joeys v Nigeria at the FIFA U-17 World Cup™

Australia face Nigeria on Saturday morning in their third and final Group B fixture at the FIFA U-17 World Cup™ 2019.

Kick-off is at 7am AEDT (5pm Friday local time) as the Joeys take on the group leaders and five-time tournament winners.

Trevor Morgan's boys fought back from two goals down to draw 2-2 with Hungary on match day two, having fallen 2-1 to Ecuador in the Group B opener in Brazil.

The African side have already secured their progress to the Round of 16 with back-to-back wins against Hungary, 4-2, and Ecuador, 3-2.

With the top two teams in the pool advancing, and four of the best third-placed teams from the six groups joining them, the Joeys are still well in the hunt for a place in the next round.
