WYC: Turkey 2013. Flying Eagles Target Istanbul For Victory.

Nigeria will depart Kayseri Tuesday morning for Istanbul, where they will play their final U20 World Cup Group B match against South Korea.

The Flying Eagles got their World Cup campaign back on track after a 3-0 win over
Cuba on Monday and they will need a result on Thursday against second-placed Korea, who forced group leaders Portugal to a thrilling 2-2 draw.

Nigeria, who are third in the standings with three points, have spent a week in the central city of Kayseri, where they lost 3-2 to Uruguay before the win against Cuba on Monday.

The flight to Turkey’s commercial capital of Istanbul is for 45 minutes.

Ghana, who will need to win their final Group A match against USA on Thursday, will move in the opposite direction for this game.

The 2009 champions lost their first two games to France and Spain, but could well sneak into the Round of 16 as a best loser.
