@dayokanu,

In the Western World, it is very difficult to lie about your age. This is because they are good at keeping records and everyone born in Europe has a official Birth Certificate. The Government has a well protected archive where copies of these Birth Certificates are kept. That is how they verify the ages of players over here. Record Keeping is taken seriously in the Western world. Apart from that, there are soccer academies all over the place. These academies also keep records of players that they groom for future reference. John Terry played at Dagenham Park before he made it big as a professional player. I saw his signature '' John Terry wuz here'' on the wall of the Park and the locals confirmed that he played at the Park as a teenager years ago. In Nigeria, it is very hard to really know the true ages of our players because of the lack of adequate record keeping. This has continued to create problems for us in International circles. We have to start getting our priorities right immediately.

Youngsters in the Western world look older than their ages. They mature quickly over here due to a number of factors. How many Nigerian teenagers have access to nutritious meals? I'm not trying to castigate Nigeria, but how many Nigerians have access to fresh milk everyday? I'm not talking about powdered milk. I'm talking about milk straight from the Dairy Farm. I have worked at a football club before and I know the rich quality of the food of the players. We need to change in Nigeria. Cheers.

My point to you is that, there is no way, I repeat, NO WAY, you can pick 23 players and virtually all will look older than the youthful look they have except you are countries like Nigeria, North Korea, Burma etc. Then you claim you still are not cheating.

What you are raising are exceptions. If one or two look older, we would say OK.

@dayokanu,

Mario Ballotelli is really the age he claims to be. In Europe and North America, youngsters look older than their ages because of the kinds of food they eat.  Sportsmen and Women in the Western world take a lot of milk, fish and vegetables before and after training. They also drink a lot of calcium and yoghurt based drinks.  Before I moved to Europe, I was a very skinny lad though my mum was cooking good food for the family. However, my physique altered itself after a year in Europe. The environment makes people look the way they are. Cheers.

Looking at those girls and using your experience as someone that has lived in nigeria do those girls look anything less than 25 to you?

asha 80:
i actually agree with sagamite here.Those girls look nothing like u20 to me.More like u28.

dayokanu:
Sagamite,

Women are more athletic when young when they go over 23 they are not strong again.

During the Olympics, Some countries were accused for fielding underaged girls in female evens thereby having undue advantage.

Let an average 18yr old girl race with a 24yr old and imagine the result.

An average man grows more stronger and muscular as he moves from 20-30yrs a lady acquires more fat, ikebe, boobi and other things as a result of gbenshing from Sagamite and co.
