Nigeria defender Onome Ebi has played at four previous Fifa World CupsVeteran defender Onome Ebi is set to become the first African to play in five Fifa global tournaments after being named in Nigeria's Women's World Cup squad. Ebi, the 2018 Nigerian footballer of the year and four-time winner of the African Women's Cup of Nations, believes playing in France will complete her football story. "To play in five World Cups will feel like I've achieved everything there is in football," Ebi told BBC Sport. Nigeria will depart a training camp in Austria on 4 June for Reims, where they open their World Cup campaign against 1995 winners Norway on 8 June. The West Africans hold the record of being the only African nation to have qualified for every Women's World Cup since it began in 1991.
