Flying Eagles to play Sudan in U-20 final round

By Footyalert → Monday, 13 June 2016

Nigeria’s U-20 squad reached the final round of qualifying for next year’s CAF U-20 Cup of Nations after edging Burundi’s Young Swallows 2-1 in Calabar on Saturday.

Before kick –off, a minute’s silence was observed in honour of Nigeria and African coaching legends Stephen Keshi and Shuaibu Amodu, who died on Wednesday and Saturday respectively. The Nigerian players also wore black armbands.

Forward Victor Osimhen and captain Kelechi Nwakali scored second half goals to seal the Flying Eagles’ passage, never thought to be in doubt after they won the first leg 1-0 in Bujumbura three weeks ago.

Siasia: We made several mistakes

Siasia: We made several mistakes

By Footyalert → Sunday, 5 June 2016

Coach Samson Siasia has blamed the Nigeria U-23 team's embarrassing 6-2 defeat by Denmark at the Suwon Invitational Tournament on Saturday on several mistakes by his boys that were ruthlessly punished by the Danes. Siasia said this much at the post match conference after the game played at the Goyang Sports Complex‎.

"We got it wrong from the blast of the referee’s whistle; we made so many mistakes; we didn't play like we were meant to. The Danes did not play so well in their first game but they were tactically sound and we simply did not know how to defend against them.

Pillars Jr in a laborious win over Giadano Fc

By Footyalert →

Kano Pillars Jr laboured in a hard fought  1-0 victory over Giadano FC of Kano in an opening  fixture of the Nationwide League Division one at the Sani Abacha Stadium played last Friday.

The game which was a derby had so many anxious momemts for both teams , as Giadano FC, a team making his debut in division one having gained promotion from division two to the top division of the Nigeria Nationwide League played with  cohesion and understanding, sticking to the game plan of using counter attack whenever Pillars Jr. loses the ball in their bid to have the curtain raiser in the encounter through the attacking trio of Yahaya Baballe, Yusuf Faisal and Bala Yusuf.
