Golden Eaglets of Nigeria taste defeat vs Burkina Faso in the quarterfinal of the U17 African Cup of Nations (AFCON U17 2023). Contact Naija Bias Football Channel: Naijabiasfc@gmail.com
Nigeria's paid for their profligacy in front of goal, lack of proper cohesion in the midfield and anxiety at the back. No doubt,there are bundles of talents in the team but were also unlucky anyway. All the best to the Burkina babes at the world cup.
Congratulations to these guys... You dominated the match guys... However, goals are the determinant factor of who wins 🏆. You guys were just unlucky today. Success in your future endeavors
A terrible team, under 17 already feeling they are stars.The defenders were shaky, midfielders and attackers with exception one were all.playing to gallery
@@samuelbrown9596 I can see that u were watching from the back of your TV.We keep encourage mediocrity.They played to the gallery and that is the mindset of most Nigerian youngsters I have engaged as an all stars player myself.
The Number 5 guy, ensured Nigeria didn't win the game.. he caused the two goals... but wht do you really expect, its a result of corruption where money has changed hands
We paid an ultimate price for giving Nduka to coach this team Who was in my own opinion was clueless tactically. I watched Morroco and saw the tactical depth of the coach. They know when to go forward and defend in numbers. In our case we did all the playing while Burkina Faso did the scoring. We should have learned from Cameroon match while they played Burkina Faso and scored two late goals.
Nduka is not good, and he behaves like tout, but the problem is from NFF president, he removed about 8 good players, midfielder that played WAFU B qualifiers, and put his Hausa brothers, even when Ugbade beeged him to allow him go with atleast two, he refused
@Nenit Africa You see what we are talking about. That means it wasn't Nduka's fault then. The current NFF boss is going to be our problem indeed. Bcos the Muslim players he has injected in the U20 team is not going anywhere either. Why are this people playing tribalism in our national team football for christ sake. Footballers is well known to be found in the SW, SE, SS & middle belt too.
. so funny how people look for excuses when this kind of thing happens. we have structure that produce real U17, U20, and U23;we always depend on talents alone;senegal is doing so well because they invested on the age groups' developmental program. About the players dropped before the tournament.nff knows that there are possibilities of them failing the MRI test; and it will be the worst scenarios Lastly;do we have a system to keep those boys together;to me they are not bad just need technical help and system to grow
@@afolabibusayo9107Please, what kind of structures do you have? Can you explain further? And which country has ever kept players together? I hope you know that destiny isn't the same; the route to stardom that fate took a player might not be the same as another's. There is no way you can keep players together as a country. I sometimes marvel at how some of you understand the issue of football. Can you point to any country that kept its underage players together? On the issue of the MRI test, it is obvious that some of you only start following a national team when there is a tournament and never care to know how the team was put together. Those boys who were dropped never failed an MRI test. FIFA pegged their MRI test at level 6. CAF pegged it at level 5. Instead of the NFF using the level 5 that CAF pegged it at, the NFF president said he would use level 4, and by doing that, he cut out many of the good players that are still within the age limit. The reason our players can match other teams physically is because he replaces those slots with the highest bidders. Every country conducts its own MRI test before submitting it to CAF. MRI tests are available in almost all hospitals. The National Hospital in Abuja has many MRI testing machines. So, how can you be afraid when you already know the result? Apart from South Africa, all other countries came with level 5 players, and you can see the results.
This is the first U-17 Nigerian team without any individual talent or team play. They lack it in every department, except the fine goalkeeper. We need that keeper in the Super Eagles...he knows how to start the attack.
Who told these boys to shoot frm no man's land, they wasted balls by shooting, it hasn't worked since game 1, that's why tiki taka BARCA were the best then, they d ball in the box
Watching NIGERIA is so frustrating. Everyone wants to score even from improbable angles and distances when it would clearly be better to square to a better positioned teammate. It is so sad to see our U17 teams join this clueless practice. They used to be much more focused and less selfish
This No.5 Player messed up Nigeria's game,. His miss kick caused the first goal, and tackle on the player gave the penalty for the second. He really did poorly at defence.
My opinion about the the team is no team play it is kick and follow.They also have Maguire in the team the person of ogboji he always send the team back to square zero during group stage ogboji score an own goal, also causes the first goal of this match by missing the clearance and also commit penalty, a serious defender will not push like that in eitheen yard box.The coach supposed to have substituted him before resuming second half.The team lack cohesion between midfield and attack.
@@germanehabib7345 that was not my question I don't care where you from I said what is your beef with Nigeria answer that or rather remain silent your beef will not change anything Nigeria u17 is still the king in world stage
@Sammy Sam I'm proud of their record as a 5 time world champion. But this current lineup was dismally selected and didn't deserve to go any further than they did. The better teams made it through and I am fine with that. Gotta be realistic at times and get over feelings....lol! 😂🤷🏾♂️🙄🤦🏾♂️🤣
The eaglets lacked creativity in front of goal. 😢. Defence was awkward against the malians.😊. Luck was not in their favour, lets not forget. It should be better next time as golden eaglets are supposed to be.
I will give credit to the Nduka for assembly the youngest U17 ever but tactically he is terrible . Now i don't understand the issue of tribalism or quota system in soccer . The best should be chosen regardless where he come from. The boys are okay . they need a good coach to grill them
That penalty wasn't a penalty. If you watched Congo against Mali desame thing happened twice and the referee called it no foul. We had our own penalty call too a clear ball to hand but VAR looked the other way completely.
