nigeria's u-17 are likely 2 rule d world if they are well kept 4 d future,c kanu,anunieke and others who won d competition in japan 93 rising 2 become stars.

Likely is an understatement and an underrating of the U17 team. They always go on to do exploits - kanu, Opabunmi, Amunike, Oruma,

If they are made to graduate in to the next U20, then we shall having a commando squad at the next U20 championships

Before i say anything, please remove Opabunmi from the list.

The U-17 team is a team i tipped for glory since the day the defeated France. It seems to me france has the strongest team in this tornamnet. If they can beat France, Brazil shouldn't be a problem. This are the teams likely to stand in their way.

Every Nigerian team in any tourney have the potentials to reach the final but never the guts to lift the trophy. Mark that.

We re playn colombia not brazil

With all those old men in the team,why won't we "rule the World"?

Abeg make we no expose ourselves for internet oh.


What a team.Dey shld play friendlies with Super Eagles and humilate them

And how fantastic were they yesterday? Abegie ! If they dare play d same way with d Argies . . . hmnn?

they're most likely g'onna be dumped o'utta d tourney by the Argies. . . .

and what if otherwise they win? ehhh . This attitude of all yall hopeless, jealous foolish nigerians got to stop for good. im sick and tired of it if all yall foolsih nigerians out there listenin. Sure nigeria dnt need this $hit in the 21st cen economy buildin for god sake. it got to stop for good.

old man or no old man na only naija team get old man ehh? football these days doesnt recognise old or young at some level in whatever ! u can check out the premiership if u like foolsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss! check out ac milan whan they won euro uefa cup . oh gad!

if england can cheat they will do it im afraid. so all yall that run your mouth on BBC sports africa web site about age cheat shuld find something useful to do for good.

now the latest news makin waves now, the same slave masters that are talkin about gobal warnin is the same master prayin that the ANTICs (north poles) ices will melt away so thay can exloit the minerals resources under? as a matter of fact the are fightin over who inherent the land itself

so did the nigerians miss somethoing or are the still sleepin for F C You K sake? just like the war in Iraq wasnt supported by those well did they bring down their soldiers

i wonder

Enough  respite

foolish Nigeria

NOw 1 time for all the real nigerians

Olusegun Adeyemi died some years ago. Meningitis was the cause of death. He was a Gombe Utd player at the time of his death. He was a decent keeper. I thought James Obiorah would go far.He did play in the champions league.
