Redemption, consolidation on offer Nigeria sent a stern warning to the rest of the competition here at the FIFA U-17 World Cup UAE 2013 when they devastated holders Mexico in their first game in Al Ain, and the Golden Eaglets are back in action to confirm their tag as tournament favourites when they meet Sweden at the Khalifa Bin Zayed Stadium on Tuesday. Also on the card is a clash of teams looking to reestablish their credentials when Mexico take on Iraq. Over in Dubai, Canada are hunting an historic win in Group E, where all four teams are tangled on one point after a pair of opening-day draws. Match of the day Sweden-Nigeria Group F’s leaders meet in a mouth-watering clash as Nigeria, aiming to become champions of the U-17 category for a record fourth time, try to keep up their smashing form. The Swedes were patient and clinical in their 4-1 opening rout of Iraq, Elias Andersson and Gustav Engvall combining well on a pair of goals. But their challenge will be dramatically stiffer up against the Golden Eaglets who manhandled Mexico 6-1 in their opener. And with the four-goal sensation Kalechi Iheanacho to try and wrangle, the Scandinavians – having a good go of it so far in their first-ever U-17 world finals – are sure to have their hands full. Player to watch After one matchday in Al Ain, there is one player in particular to keep an eye one, especially if you’re a member of the Swedish defence. Kalechi Iheanacho was dominant in Nigeria’s rout of Mexico, scoring four times and putting in a performance far more nuanced and mature than his 17 years would suggest. “We have to have the courage and determination to keep going,” he told FIFA.com after soaring to the top of the scorer’s charts. 2 Likes |

Manu: Same approach for Sweden After seeing his wards dismantle Mexico 6-1 on Saturday, Nigeria Under-17 coach Manu Garba says the approach to the game will not change against Sweden. Garba, whose Total Football left the defending champions cross-eyed, insists there will be no question of underrating the Europeans when the Nigerian cadets return to the Khalifa Bin Zayed Stadium on Tuesday to face the debutants from Europe. “There is no and won't be any easy game at this tournament and we are not going to underrate Sweden because we beat Mexico 6-1," he said. "We are going to approach the match against Sweden with the same manner as we did against Mexico because our objective is to win the fourth title for Nigeria.” He said the convincing win against the Mexicans was not unexpected given the pedigree of the team overtime. “The victory against Mexico is not going to have a negative impact on my players because they know what they have to do,” he maintained. “This is not the first time we are beating a team by such a high margin. “We had beaten teams by 11-0 score line back home, so it is nothing new to us to score so many goals against the Mexicans. “We are looking forward to the next game against Sweden knowing well that all the teams at this championship are here based on merit,” he added. The Golden Eaglets returned to training Sunday evening as they continued their preparations for their next match. |

Golden Eaglets striker Kelechi Iheanacho has revealed that his goal celebration was inspired by his favourite wrestler Daniel Bryan. Iheanacho scored four goals in Nigeria’s 6-1 defeat of Mexico in the UAE 2013 FIFA Under-17 World Cup in Al Ain City on Saturday. Iheanacho raced to corner flag whenever he scored, raised and pumped his arms, extending his fingers to the heavens. His knees followed along in rhythm to celebrate his goals. “This is the celebration move of my favourite professional wrestler,” Iheanacho told FIFA.com. Bryan is this Nigerian boy’s favourite wrestler, a bearded American from the outskirts of Seattle who occasionally goes by the moniker, the American Dragon. “I watch him on TV and I love the way he whips up the crowd this way, so I decided to copy it. The fans seemed to like it, too,” he added. “I was totally over the top with joy when that first goal went in.” He said his goals against defending champions Mexico on Saturday marked the first time he would score that number of goals in an international match. “I’ve scored four goals in a game many times, but only in the streets with my friends,” the striker said. “But (it has) never (been) in an international match, never for my country. The feeling is amazing. “Sure, it’s a big win in our first game. We have to have courage now and determination to keep going, to go all the way.” Nigeria’s next group game will be against Sweden on Tuesday, while their last group tie will be against Iraq three days later. Nigeria currently top their group with three points from one match, with Sweden who were 4-1 winners over Iraq on Saturday behind them in second place. 3 Likes |
