Iheanacho Wins MVP Award, Alampasu Best Goalkeeper by gidson12(m): 7:28am On Nov 09, 2013 |
FIFA U17 World Cup: Iheanacho wins MVP award, Alampasu best goalkeeper Tunde Eludini - 10 hours ago FOOTBALL, SPORTS Eaglets all round best team of tournament There was more joy – aside from winning the trophy at the just concluded FIFA U17 World Cup in the United Emirates – for players and officials of the Golden Eaglets as they scooped four more awards. Skilful strike sensation, Kelechi Iheancaho, was voted the most valuable player of the tournament; thus, going home with the Golden Ball Award. He also landed the Silver Boot after emerging the second highest goal scorer of the tournament with six goals. The team’s goalkeeper, Dele Alampasu, who was initially deemed the weakest link in the Nigerian squad, shamed his critics when he was voted the best goalkeeper of the tournament; winning the Golden Glove. The two Nigerian youngsters were indeed shining lights in this cadet mundial as their contributions were massive in securing Nigeria a record fourth title. Already being touted to be on the wish list of some top clubs in Europe, Iheanacho is also a candidate for rapid promotion from the U17 team. In addition to the individual awards, the Eaglets, collectively, were also adjudged the most disciplined side and carted away the FIFA Fair Play award. The Eaglets, with six yellow cards from seven games, got the nod of the FIFA assessors to be awarded the Fair Play plaque, humbly received by the team captain, Musa Muhammed. For many, the disciplined attitude of the Nigerian youngsters contributed a great deal to them emerging as champions at 2013 FIFA U17 World Cup. www.premiumtimesng.com/sports/149299-fifa-u17-world-cup-iheanacho-wins-mvp-award-alampasu-best-goalkeeper.html |
