Dare hosts Golden Eaglets, charges team to win AFCON title

Sports Minister, Sunday Dare, hosted the victorious Golden Eaglets team that won the WAFU B U-17 Championship in Abuja on Tuesday.

The Golden Eaglets defeated Burkina Faso 2-1 in the final of the competition last Friday at the Cape Coast Stadium.

Nduka Ugbade’s charges have also secured a ticket to the Africa U-17 Cup of Nations which will be hosted by Algeria in 2023.

“I congratulate the players and their coaches of the Golden Eaglets for winning so convincingly in Ghana and I want to charge you to remain focused for the continental championship in order to get the ticket to the World Cup,” Dare said during the ceremony.


“For you players, you must stay humble, hardworking and obedient to your coaches.”

Dare also commended the Nigeria Football Federation for employing competent coaches to handle the team.

“I want to give credit to the NFF for implementing the cardinal principles that we agreed at meetings on youth football development. Now, we can see that the emphasis on merit and competence has started to bear fruits,”he added.

” The U17 and U20 girls have qualified for their FIFA World Cup competitions with aplomb and the U17 and U20 boys have won regional tournaments in emphatic manner, with promises of what we can look forward to at their African championships next year.”

Good one. Pls our President should avoid speaking to them until after the tournament.

congrats lads, my only problem with Nigerian football is lack of Progress from u-17 football to super eagles settings...
dey perform well n win trophies in Africa n even worldcup in u-17 but seems to lose it in u-21, Olympics till d super eagles settings..
stars are found in u-17 BT we hardly see them in super eagles squad years letta
were are the likes of rabiu ibrahim, lukmon haruna, marculey chrisantus, Stanley okoro, nwakali n the others dt once made names in u-17 sets...
its only iheanacho n oshimhen we do see, if it was spanish team dt won dt 'cup wit those kids, dt keeper would be given call up as 3rd choice in a friendly game...
if youngsters aint given chances, how can dey get experience??
Gavi was just 16 n playing for barca n spain because dey gave him chance..
