Group A<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nigeria 0-1 France<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the Rhein-Neckar Arena, in Sinsheim, France were made to work hard to move past a stubborn Nigeria, and only gained the lead in the second-half, through Marie-Laure Delie<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The first chance on goal came right after the quarter-hour mark, when Nigeria keeper Precious Dede had to fly to parry away Elise Bussaglia’s strike from distance. Nigeria almost scored shortly after, when a through pass found Desiree Oparanozie, but the striker could not find the target, with just the ‘keeper to beat.<\/p>\n

France’s goal would come 11 minutes after the break, as Delie volleyed home a Eugenie Le Sommer low cross from the right to give her side their first victory since USA 2003, when they made their last appearance at a World Cup.<\/p>\n

Germany 2-1 Canada<\/strong><\/p>\n

A late Christine Sinclair<\/strong> goal was unable to prevent Canada from losing to tournament hosts Germany, who bagged first-half goals through Kerstin Garefrekes<\/strong> and Celia Da Mbabi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Germany got off to a flying start and broke the deadlock on nine minutes, as Garefrekes headed home a cross from the left. Five minutes before the break, Da Mbabi picked up a long ball and increased her side’s lead with a low finish.<\/p>\n

Canada came more determined in the second half, but only reduced the deficit in the 82nd minute, in a Sinclair free-kick strike. After the end of the match, coach Caroline Morace told Goal.com<\/strong> the prolific Canadian striker is likely miss her side’s second group match, against Nigeria, with a broken nose.<\/p>\n
