Emma Berglund’s flicked header from a corner kick was redirected into Nigeria’s net by the Oparamozie's chest. A poor clearance off another Swedish corner made it 2-0, Nilla Fischer able to tap in to an empty net after the ball made its way through the crowd.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Nigeria’s front line staged a comeback. After the break, two goals in quick succession levelled matters. Ngozi Okobi’s brilliant first touch afforded the No13 plenty of room and space before coolly firing past Hedvig Lindahl. Three minutes later, Asisat Oshoala, the golden shoe winner at the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup Canada 2014 opened her account for this tournament with a fine individual effort after a well-played long ball from Onome Ebi.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Sembrant handed the lead back to Sweden after good build-up play on the left side resulted in Lina Nilsson’s cross that the substitute managed to direct past Precious Dede with her thigh.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> However, Ordega salvaged a point for the Super Falcons three minutes from time with a shot that managed to slip through the legs of Lindahl, leaving matters level at 3-3</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The Super Falcons have never beaten Sweden at the senior level, rather they lost 3-0 in their first clash in 2003.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The African champions shared the spoils with Sweden when both countries met at the 2007 edition of the tournament, with Cynthia Uwak levelling matters for Nigeria eight minutes from time after Victoria Svensson’s 50th minute goal.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Placed in the ‘Group of Death’ as pundits have tagged it, the Nigerian team had been tipped to crash out of Group D, which has USA and Australia as the other two countries.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Sweden are rated as the fifth-best women’s footballing nation in the world, while opponents Nigeria are far behind them in 33rd.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The Super Falcons have contested 19 games at the World Cup, winning three, drawing two and losing the rest.
