Eaglets beat Guinea in Conakry...


Golden Eaglets

Hello Friends!

Nigeria U-17 team, the Golden Eaglets, on Sunday beat Guinea 4-0 on in Conakry to qualify for the next round of the African Junior Championship on a 7-0 aggregate.

The Eaglets won the first leg qualifier 3-0 in Calabar two weeks ago and with Sunday’s result, they have set up a final qualifier with the winners of the match between Mali and Mauritania in November.

The Eaglets led 2-0 with goals from Alhassan Ibrahim and Isaac Success in Sunday match.

Success scored again in the second half to complete his brace while Musa Yahaya completed the rout with a fourth goal.

Nigeria have won the U-17 World Cup thrice in 1985, 1993 and 2007, but the current team is proving to be another strong side as they have not drawn or lost on the road and at home any of their two qualifiers against Niger and Guinea. Scoring 17 goals and conceding a goal in the process. Morocco will host the African Junior Championship in April next year.

Culled from The Punch Nigeria.
