The Golden Eaglets of Nigeria have continued their preparations towards the forthcoming FIFA U-17 world cup in Chile later this year.
The Emmanuel Amunike-led side defeated Alhaji Sani Lulu Abdullahi's FOSLA Football Academy 4-0 in a friendly match played at the NFF\FIFA Goal Project Pitch in Abuja.
FOSLA Academy is owned by Alhaji Sani Lulu Abdullahi, a former President of the Nigeria Football Federation.
Eaglets' captain, Kelechi Nwakali, opened scoring for his side in the 10th minute of the game and increased his side's tally before the first half whistle while midfielder David Enogela grabbed the third goal with a lively shot after a through pass from Nwakali.
On the other end, FOSLA's Mustapha Kehinde saw his free kick miss target by the whiskers in the 34th minute. In the 40th minute, Emeka Ebere scored Eaglets' fourth goal when he cleverly evaded his marker before slotting the ball behind goalkeeper Abddulazeez Yusuf.
"The Golden Eaglets showed some maturity and I'm impressed with the team that played in the first half,"noted Peter Dedevbo, Head Coach of the U-20 Women National Team, who watched the encounter. "From my experience, the Golden Eaglets can always get better as they build up towards the World Cup."
