Nigeria U17 spank Henfield 6-1 in friendly


Coach Emmanuel Amuneke’s boys have now scored 170 goals in 55 games as they continue preparations for the 2015 Fifa U17 World Cup






Nigeria U17 team defeated Hensfield Football Club 6-1 in a friendly game played at the Fifa Goal Project ground in Abuja on Thursday

A first half treble from Orji Okoronkwo plus strikes from Promise Orji, Kelechi Nwakali and Ginika Eze were all the Golden Eaglets needed to emerge victorious while their opponents got their solitary strike through Muhammed Abiola.

"I'm quite impressed with the way Orji and Nwakali took their chances which is very good," former U17 coach, Manu Garba who watched from the stands said after the game.

"The team's general performance was very good especially in the first half  and with many more matches, they would get better for the World Cup,” he concluded.
