DR Congo and Nigeria win through
Nigeria and the DR Congo will be Africa's representatives at the Under-20 Women's World Championship in Russia later this year.
In Abuja the Nigerians thrashed Liberia 9-1 in the second leg of their final qualifying game.
That result gave the Super Falconets a 10-2 win on aggregate, after the two sides drew 1-1 in Monrovia two weeks ago.
The DR Congo booked their place thanks to a 1-0 win in Kinshasa to make it 2-2 on aggregate and advance to Russia on the away goals rule.
The draw for August's World Championship has already been held, with spaces for the African sides in Group B alongside China, Finland and Canada and in Group D with USA, France and Argentina.
