The previous record was jointly held by Germany's Kyra Malinowski and Korea Republic's Yeo Min Ji , who both scored four goals against South Africa and Nigeria respectively at the 2010 Fifa Under 17s in Trinidad and Tobago.
Chinwendu Ihezuo has surpassed the earlier record with her five strikes on 5', 32', 37',56" and 70' against host nation Azerbaijan on Tuesday.
