Flying Eagles duo of Kingsley Sokari and Ifeanyi Matthew have returned to training with the full team ahead of Thursday’s U-20 World Cup Round of 16 clash against Germany in Christchurch.
Enyimba midfielder, Sokari was substituted in the 82nd minute after knocking his ankle in his side’s final group game against Hungary on Sunday morning.
Matthew, on the other hand missed the last two games against North Korea and Hungary after he suffered a deep cut in the foot in the opening game against Brazil.
The El Kanemi Warriors star trained with the rest of the squad as they prepare to take on Germany, who topped their first round group in style by posting a +14 goals difference.
At the end of their training session, Manu Garba made his team practice penalties just in case their game against Germany extends into shootouts to decide the team to progress to the quarterfinals of the FIFA U-20 world cup in New Zealand.
Goalkeeper Joshua Enaholo looked good at stopping and scoring from the penalty spot.
Taiwo Awoniyi, Bernard Bulbwa, Isaac Success, Kelechi Iheanacho and Chidiebere Nwakali easily put away their kicks. Africanfootball
