[b][size=14pt] Colombian officials for Eaglets, Croatia cracker [/size] Football’s world governing body, FIFA has appointed Wilson Lamouroux as the centre referee for the match between Nigeria’s Golden Eaglets and Croatia tonight. The 36-year-old Colombian has been an international referee since 2013 and he would be assisted by compatriots, Alexander Guzman and Wilmar Navarro. The fourth of official is Reyna Oscar from Guatemala. FIFA also affirmed that Nigeria’s Eaglets will don their traditional home colour with players in green jersey, short and socks while the goalkeepers would be in purple attire. Croatia will be in red attire. Meanwhile, the Golden Eaglets have yet been told that Friday’s FIFA U-17 World Cup Chile 2015 match against Croatia at Estadio Francisco Sanchez Rumoroso in Coquimbo is a must win. Head Coach Emmanuel Amuneke said as much during Thursday’s training session at Compejo Despotivo La Alpina. “Our match on Friday(against Croatia) is a must win and we have to approach the match with all seriousness,” he said. “We should not get carried away because we have won our first two matches against USA and Chile.” He continued: “Don’t forget, it was Croatia that denied us the opportunity of winning the Suwon U-17 Tournament in Korea last month; so it is an opportunity for us to show them we are better than them but unlucky then.” The Golden Eaglets would be without defensive midfielder Udochukwu Anumudu who was booked against USA and Chile as well as striker Funsho Bamgboye who saw red against Chile on Tuesday, but Amuneke said there are capable replacements: “All of you must be ready to play and that is why we are all here,” he stressed. “We must remain focused because the match on Friday is very important; we thank God for success in the last two matches but the match on Friday is also very important for us.” [/b] www.vanguardngr.com/2015/10/colombian-officials-for-eaglets-croatia-cracker/ |

[b][size=14pt] U-17 World Cup: Africa’s quartet face decisive final group games [/size] [img]http://images.performgroup.com/di/library/Goal_Nigeria/f3/89/kelechi-nwakali-david-enogela-chile-u17-nigeria-u17-21102015_nwjgi1rc393v1q4c519s8u1v9.jpg?t=-1981155576&w=620&h=430[/img] The continent’s four sides have endured mixed fortunes in their first two group-stage matches; will they be content with their performances to date? By Ed Dove Two matches into the U-17 World Cup group stage, Africa’s quartet have endured some mixed fortunes. Of the four sides, Nigeriaare the outstanding side. The Golden Eaglets sit atop Group A after two matches, having won both, accrued a maximum six points and scored seven goals. The sole goal they’ve conceded—in the 5-1 demolition of hosts Chile in Vina del Mar—is the only blemish (and that a tiny one) in a superb campaign for Emmanuel Amuneke’s side so far. There aren’t too many other nations—if any—who take youth-level football as seriously as Nigeria, and the West African giants have every reason to do so. 'We're calm and focused on defending our title' – Nigeria U17 coach Amuneke https:// /54SQ9hRDeG pic.twitter.com/plVJxNdINr— Goal.com Nigeria (@GoalcomNigeria) October 22, 2015 The U-17 side are the most successful side in the history of the tournament, having won the title a record four times, and the early indications are that the current generation have the quality and the confidence to join some of the elite teams of the past.  Amuneke |Hoping that his Golden Eaglets can live up to Nigeria's great teams of the past The Eaglets saw off the United States in their opener following two goals in eleven minutes—via Chukwudi Agor and star man Victor Osimhen—before demolishing Chile in the best team performance in the tournament so far. Another of the team’s key men, Kelechi Nwakali, got on the scoresheet in this match, and has lived up to the billing so far. USA should have gone ahead once again. The Eaglets keep getting prised open in the back. Wright's touch just goes over 0-0 # U17WConStarTimes— Lolade Adewuyi (@Jololade) October 17, 2015 The Nigerians face Croatia in their final group match on Friday, but regardless of the result, top spot in the pool is theirs. Having cruised through the group stage, Amuneke’s boys are living up to their reputation as tournament favourites. However, the real tests will come in the knockout rounds, as the pressure to perform—and the echoes of history—weigh upon the Eaglets’ youthful shoulders.  South Africa’s Amajimbos also entered the tournament with big expectations, but for different reasons.

We lost our focus, and our opponent took advantage of it. We created goal chances, but Korea DPR’s great defensc denied us more goals. Even with this result, we still have hopes of moving on to the next phase. If we win our next match, against Russia, we’d have four points, which could see us through the group stage to the knockout round,"Molefi Ntseki, South Africa coach. "Today was a very important game for the team. Unfortunately, in the first half, only a few minutes from the start, we lost a player to the red card. We had to play with ten players but we did the best with those left. After that, we had many chances to score but we could not finish these. In the last game, we have to do better than this match,"Yon Kwang Mu, Korea DPR coach. [/b] www.fifa.com/u17worldcup/matches/round=271783/match=300298411/quotes.html 1 Like |

In the second half we managed to make the game more balanced. Also there was a very difficult moment but our goalkeeper Maksimenko managed to save the penalty. He’s a very good goalkeeper for his age category and he has good qualities and can really save the team in such episodes. I wouldn’t say that we were surprised by Costa Rica’s game. We have been preparing for this game. The only thing which I can say surely now is that the team failed in the first half,”Russia coach, Mikhail Galaktionov. “I think we did not win the game because it was difficult. Sergio Ramirez couldn’t manage to score the penalty in the first half but he is happy because he has scored. We can recognise the efforts of everybody as it is a team. One point was very important. We’re very grateful for everybody here in Concepcion.

*smiles* Even Various coaches and technical minds in soccer (including Uruguay's Fabian Coito... Remember him at Uae 2013?) seem to see The Golden Eaglets' style as one to really look at or keenly analyse ....... Read below...... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chile 2015 to leave coaching legacy (FIFA.com) 23 Oct 2015 Marcelo Jara raises his hand and awaits his turn. At that moment, one of the working groups is analysing – from a tactical aspect – video footage of Nigeria’s recent comprehensive victory over Chile, and Jara is keen to bring the question of psychology into the discussion. In the afternoon session, all of these theoretical concepts will transform into a reality on the pitch in the practical part of the training course, although the productive debate never stops. Jara is one of seven Chilean coaches taking part in FIFA’s regional seminar for youth coaches in Vina del Mar. The goal of the course, developed as part of FIFA’s legacy programme, is to make the most of the fact that the FIFA U-17 World Cup is currently ongoing in Chile, and to leave a legacy in the host country as well as in the wider region. Indeed, among the group of 24 participants there are youth coaches from all over South America. Some names are more well-known than others: Richard Paez, for example, has previously taken charge of Venezuelan national youth teams as well as the Venezuelan senior side, while Fabian Coito has led the Uruguayan teams out at the FIFA U-17 World Cup and the U-20 equivalent. Columbia’s Carlos Restrepo and Peru’s Juan Jose Ore have also coached their respective national sides at youth-level World Cups. “You can go and watch other teams’ training sessions or ask permission to find out how other clubs operate, but actually being at an U-17 World Cup match and then analysing it afterwards with colleagues of this calibre is very rewarding,” Jara told FIFA.com. “We don’t all think alike or prioritise the same aspects of the game, but that’s what makes the course interesting.” Jara, 43, spent 16 years as a professional footballer. Since 2010, he has worked as a youth coach for Universidad de Chile, the club with which he came through the ranks, and is now at the helm of the Santiago outfit’s U-17 team. In fact, five of his players are currently competing for compatriot Miguel Ponce’s side at the U-17 World Cup, namely Gabriel Mazuela, Yerko Leiva, Ignacio Azua, Matias Pinto and Camilo Moya. “I can’t stop watching them with the eyes of a coach, thinking about how or where they could be performing better,” admitted Jara. “I think they’ve lived up to expectations, though. I’m proud to see them taking part in the tournament, but we mustn’t forget they’re part of a larger process.” ----Selecting a style---- The fact that Jara is able to contextualise his players’ participation is no coincidence. As instructors Jorge Diaz-Cidoncha, FIFA Grassroots Coordinator, and Daniel Banales, CONMEBOL Technical Development Director, point out practically in unison, “One of the objectives of the seminar is to give coaches the theoretical and practical tools to create and maintain a football training framework. This will provide each association with the opportunity to develop and adhere to a specific style of play.” As far as Jara is concerned, this is one of the greatest challenges facing youth football in Chile. “We have to ask ourselves, how do we actually want to play? You look at Nigeria here – they have a distinct style, constantly attacking, regardless of the consequences. Croatia also have their own style, with an emphasis on the passing game. Chile are still searching for a football identity, but to find that, you need time, and this team has not had that luxury.” When Jorge Sampaoli’s senior Chilean side comes up in conversation, another thorny subject rears its head. While in countries like Argentina, Brazil or Uruguay it would be unthinkable for a foreigner to take charge of the national XI, La Roja have not been coached by a Chilean native since Juvenal Olmos in 2005. Will the time come when the situation is the same as in the aforementioned major football nations in South America? “I think it’s unlikely in the short term, because we’re going through a highly successful phase,” said Jara. “But that does not mean that there aren’t Chileans out there who could coach the national team. There are several who are on the right path to earning themselves a chance. Those coaches need to constantly educate themselves and be ready when the moment comes.” Jara views his participation in the course as a further stage in his learning process. An admirer of Pep Guardiola “for the way he adapts his teams’ shape to suit his football philosophy”, he admits that he has been surprised by the amount of planning that has gone into the course and also by the communication skills demonstrated by his fellow participants. “Sometimes it’s not enough to include tactical concepts or shower you with information. What is the point of that if you don't even know how to get across to your players what you want? That is a great lesson, one which will help me to better prepare for the future,” he concluded confidently. www.fifa.com/u17worldcup/news/y=2015/m=10/news=chile-2015-to-leave-coaching-legacy-2720769.html 2 Likes |

[b][size=14pt] FIFA U-17 World Cup Chile 2015 Calculators and cards: The qualification and disciplinary lowdown [/size]  The group stage of the FIFA U-17 World Cup is well on its way to completion. While some countries need more than one result to go in their favour to avoid having to pack their bags, others have the key to reaching the Round of 16 firmly in their own hands. Against this backdrop, FIFA.comruns through the permutations so that you know what to look out for in the crucial final group-stage fixtures. Who goes through? The teams finishing first and second in each group will automatically go through to the Round of 16. They will be joined by the four best third-placed teams. The standings in each group are calculated as follows: 1. Number of points obtained in all group matches; 2. Goal difference in all group matches; 3. Goals scored in all group matches. If two or more teams are equal on the basis of the above three criteria, the following tiebreakers apply: 4. Points obtained in the matches between the teams in question; 5. Goal difference in the matches between the teams in question; 6. Goals scored in the matches between the teams in question; 7. Fair Play point system in which the number of yellow and red cards are considered according to the following deductions: - first yellow card: minus 1 point - second yellow/indirect red card: minus 3 points - direct red card: minus 3 points - yellow card and direct red card: minus 4 points 8. Drawing of lots by the FIFA Organising Committee. Meanwhile, the four best third-placed teams will be allocated into the Round of 16 matches in accordance with article 17 of the Regulations for the FIFA U-17 World Cup Chile 2015: 1. Points obtained in all group matches; 2. Goal difference in all group matches; 3. Goals scored in all group matches; 4. The Fair Play points system described above 5. Drawing of lots by the FIFA Organising Committee. Rules regarding yellow and red cards Players who receive two yellow cards in two different matches before the semi-finals will be automatically suspended for their team's following game. Single yellow cards accrued will be cancelled after the quarter-finals, therefore ensuring that no players miss the Final because of receiving a caution in the semi-finals. Players sent off, either through a straight red card or two yellow cards in the same match, will be automatically suspended for their team's next game. In addition, the FIFA Disciplinary Committee may impose further sanctions for direct red-card offences.
