Thomas Dennerby has expressed joy after guiding Nigeria to the Women's World Cup knockout stage for the first time since 1999.
Prior to their eighth appearance at the showpiece event in France, the Super Falcons have failed to make it past the group stage in their last four attempts, but this time they pulled through.
The African champions made a disappointing start to their campaign, losing 3-0 to 1995 winners Norway in Reims but bounced back against 14th-ranked South Korea, with a 2-0 win in Grenoble.
In their final Group A game, they bowed to a narrow 1-0 defeat against hosts France in Rennes but managed to advance to the Round of 16, claiming the final spot on goal difference.
