SORRY BRO HERE IS THE SUMMRY

Nigeria became the most successful team in FIFA U-17 World Cup
history with a 3-0 win over holders Mexico at the Mohammad Bin Zayed
Stadium in Abu Dhabi. The final was a rematch of the 6-1 win Nigeria
inflicted on the Mexicans in Group F play and sees the Golden Eaglets
lay hands on the junior world trophy for the fourth time in their history,
one better than South American giants Brazil. When the final whistle
went in the UAE capital, fans and players alike rejoiced, fingers pointed
to the sky, with what has become the traditional Nigerian celebration of:
“yes, yes yes!”

Mexico kept the ball for a full two minutes at the start of the game,
moving it around well and making the Nigerians chase. El Tri even
managed the first chance on goal after six minutes. Osvaldo Rodriguez
crossed from the left, but Alejandro Diaz couldn’t keep his close-range
effort the right side of the post. Two minutes on and Ivan Ochoa – who
scored twice in the semi-final win over Argentina – saw his off-balance
header pushed over the bar by Dele Alampasu.

The corner came to nothing for the Mexicans, but Nigeria benefitted
greatly by bursting out on a classic counter-attack. Kelechi Iheanacho
went flying up the pitch. With just one Mexican defender in position, the
No10 Golden Eaglet laid the ball in for Taiwo Awoniyi who then fed it on
to Musa Yahaha, who had a little help from Erick Aguirre. The Mexican
midfielder mistakenly hit the ball into his own net in an attempt to
recover.

With the score 1-0, Musa Muhammed was giving the Mexicans fits with
his rampaging runs up the right side. He pinned the opponents back at
every opportunity. As the first half pushed toward the interval, the
Africans upped their tempo in search of a second goal. Yahaya rattled
the crossbar with a stunning effort from 20 yards out after 38 minutes.
Pressure was mounting and the fans in the stands were on their feet
when Awoniyi’s bicycle-kick from the penalty spot forced Raul Gudino
into a magnificent reaction save in the dying moments of the half.
The second period began with a frenzy of attacks at both ends of the
pitch, but it was Nigeria who made theirs count, making it 2-0 in the
56th minute. Captain Muhammed unleashed a wicked swirling shot that
Mexican keeper Gudino simply couldn’t hang on to. He spilled a
rebound directly to the feet of the most dangerous man on the pitch,
and Iheanacho made no mistake dispatching his sixth goal of the
tournament.

With a quarter-hour to go, Mexico managed to carve out a rare second-
half chance, but Ochoa’s header from close-range slipped wide of the
post as the holders began to wilt under the ceaseless pressure of the
buzzing Nigerians. Muhammed added a third with ten minutes to go,
curling a sublime free-kick into the top corner.
Anyone in UAE who had the pleasure to see them will tell you that this
Nigerian team were the best on offer. Even a few of the Mexican fans
were mumbling “yes, yes, yes” when the final whistle went on Nigeria’s
glorious campaign here in UAE.
*yawns* one word pls angry
