Lea Schuller celebrates her goal with Germany team-matesDouble champions Germany continued their unbeaten run at the Women's World Cup when they beat Nigeria 3-0 to qualify for the quarter-finals on Saturday. Skipper Alexandra Popp and Sara Daebritz netted in quick succession in the first half with Lea Schuller wrapping it up late on. On her 100th appearance for Germany, Popp headed the first home after 20 minutes and Daebritz doubled the tally with a penalty seven minutes later, with VAR being used for both goals.

Germany will now face either Sweden or Canada in the quarter-finals, with their last-16 tie taking place in Paris on Monday.
