Legends Tournament: Nigeria Beat China, Battle Italy Tonight by samsonslides: 9:39am On Jul 14, 2017
Yakubu Aiyegbeni’s brace and Daniel Amokachi goal ensured Nigeria start their legends tournament campaign at the London O2 Arena with a 3-2 victory over China.

Nigeria survived a late scare to defeat China 3-2, before the night was ended by Brazil’s exciting 2-1 win over Italy.

The Nigeria legendary side was captained by former Bolton and PSG midfielder Jay Jay Okocha while the likes of Daniel Amokachi, Celestine Babayaro, Garba Lawal, Taribo West, Uche Okcechukwu, Peter Rufai, Julius Aghahowa, Joseph Yobo, and Victor Ikpeba made up the squad.

Yakubu Aiyegbeni scored a quick double before Daniel Amokachi made it three for Nigeria but a lack of concentration and tiredness almost allowed China back into the game as they scored two late goals.

Ever-green Okocha lit the O2 Arean with his skills, he set up Yakubu’s second goal while Yakubu also provided the assist for Daniel Amokachi’s sweet goal.

Up next for Nigeria is a tie against Italy in what could give Rufia, Okocha and Amokachi the chance to repay Italy of what they did to them in the 2nd round of USA 1994 world cup.

In other games played yesterday, England lost 4-1 to Spain, Scotland beat Mexico 3-1, Portugal suffered a shock defeat to Denmark, going down 6-4 before German edged out France 4-3, with Ballack on the scoresheet.
