Contrary to permutations and expectations young Stallions of Burkina Faso Friday shocked the Flying Eagles 2-0 to clinch Gold in the finals of the Africa Games football event in Morocco.

Flying Eagles who had dispatched Mali 5-4 on penalties to hit the finals were tipped not necessarily to have a walk in the park against the Stallions in the final but to win the match even by a slight margin.

Coach of the side Paul Aigbogun had before the match challenged his boys not to give room for mistakes that could ruin the day.

Flying Eagles beat Mali 5-4 and lost to Burkina Faso 2-0
The result is thus an indication that all did not go according to plans or that they underrated their opponents who ran away with two goals scored in the first half of the encounter played at the Stade Moulay Hassan.

It was apparent that the junior Stallions were given two major instructions, go, get the goals and defend it to the finish!

With the two goals in the kitty of the stallions, efforts by Flying Eagles to turn the table proved abortive as the stallions held tenaciously and guarded their victory to the end .

Nigeria thus settled for Silver while the Stallions pocket the Gold.

Senegal had on Thursday beaten Mali 4-3 on penalty after the Bronze match ended goalless.

you should not have told me an adage in your place since we don’t have a common place.

Moreover, I wasn’t talking against the match or the performance of the team but the OP, posting “just in” after over an hour the match ended.

And people will be saying Paul Aigbogun is better than me, I coached my team to win our street football competition. I wonder why he can't win his own competition

Mumu team, na push push dem push them reach the final self, 3 draws in the preliminary stage.

I have a question, at Olympics or this all African games, does a gold medal counts 22 for the winner as per number of the players or just one gold medal as per the game ( football) itself.

Sane answers please


Thanks to all that answered my question. Am more clear now, I v always wondered how its been counted.

no it's just a single medal it's only sports like swimming, Athletics and some others that you can have more than one medal in an event,(cause there are several categories),for examplePhelps in beljing Olympics won 8 gold medals

Its just one, even though all the players including technical staff collect medal, the value represents one medal

There is something wrong with the present football administration. A thorough investigation should be conducted otherwise it will get to the point where we may not qualify to play in any competition.
