The Flamingos have received the N3 million cash gift promised to them by Super Eagles captain Ahmed Musa.
The cheque was presented to the players upon their arrival from India on Tuesday night.
Musa promised the team N3 million if they defeated Germany in their third-place match at the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup.
The Flamingos surrendered a three-goal lead in the game but eventually prevailed 3-2 on penalties.
It was the first time the Flamingos would pick up a medal in the competition’s history.
The team is expected to be hosted soon by President Muhammadu Buhari, and they will also be rewarded for the historic feat in India.
