Naaah this first half is nothing like the 2 halves vs Ghana in the first game.

And those 2 starting changes by Maikaba has been utterly useless. Haba

one thing I like the most from that winger that moved to Belgium was his free kicks

Papi85:
okay now I understand you. Thought those that needs switch were out of the equation because of their status

Yea it’s good to incorporate first those that doesn’t need switch but at the same time not to ignore those that needs switch

What do you think of Kareem Tunde? Haven’t watched much of his game

No singular shot on target in 45min U20 Wafu B
Be like secondary principal cup match
Most of the play was done in our half
I hope no injuries for Maikaba to make changes to a victorious side from the 1st match
HT Togo 0 Nig 0

Nah this Togo team is well drilled from the CBs to the DM they can hold and redistribute possession very well we can’t beat them with physicality they’re better than us in that regard

#19 Hussaini Adamu (one of the 2 maikaba changes from the starting XI) seems to have been subbed out when they resumed the 2nd 45.

Make I shock you?

Adeleke scored 2 vs Togo and 2 vs Ghana at the U17 Wafu B in 2024.

In 2026, he has so far scored 2 vs Ghana and another 2 vs Togo again at WafuB U20 level.

This is Double De ja vu. grin

Then let the second choice keeper take her place in goal against Zambia.

Nomyth:
She was second choice to Oluehi at the world cup in France.

Oluehi messed up in the first match against Norway and conceded 3 cheeky goals which made the coach glue her ass to the bench for the subsequent games despite her being the captain of the team.

In came Nnadozie who at the time was second choice goalkeeper at Rivers Angel's.

Second choice to Oluehi at Rivers Angels.

ICYMI: This below is a short analytical piece on Abdoulaye Agbejoye.... Just read, watch and enjoy.

He came off the bench and scored Naija's 3rd vs Togo not quite long.

TheSuperNerd:

#9 Abdoulaye Agbejoye Said, CF (Grassrunners FC) - 6️⃣

Abdoulaye was MVP and Top Scorer of the 2025/26 U19 National Youth League (South-West Conference - 15 teams) with 19 goals, 5 assists in 22 games (1,329 mins) leading Grassrunners to top spot and earning them a place in the NY-league Super 8 which saw them make the final against Muiz Adeleke's Sporting Supreme (Check the previous Flying Eagles 2026 watch series to see what the outcome was).

Abdoulaye Said Agbejoye Highlights:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8szp_w0pdAw?si=WfQ2AmRVCQLXEYdE

The 6ft 4in 18y/o striker is akin to a gangling force in the final third. Good linkup plays, balance and a true poacher.

Even SkySports Germany ran a small check on the lad tagging him the Nigerian Erling Haaland...
Sky Sport Germany’s take on our very own Nigerian Haaland, Abdoulaye Agbejoye. The goals are speaking louder than words, and Europe is beginning to take notice. 🌟⚽#AbdoulayeAgbejoye #GrassrunnersFC #GrowingTogether 🇳🇬🔥 pic.twitter.com/EG3M9Oyy1z
— Grassrunners FC (@grassrunnersfc) July 9, 2026

NB: Grassrunners are the same club that sold winger, Angelo Agbejoye to Swedish side, Djurgardens IF in the current 2026 summer window especially after he was heavily linked with AIK as Zadok's replacement. Angelo should have been part of the WafuB U20 squad but his new deal means he is in Sweden and unavailable for this tournament.

He and Agbejoye are interesting striking profiles.

#20 Abdulmuiz Adeleke, CF (Sporting Supreme FC) - 4️⃣

Adeleke is a leftfooted striker who is also just as comfortable with his right foot. Tagging him as an Ambipedal attacker is more apt.
Technically astute and a very smart finisher.

He was Top scorer at the 2024 Wafu B U17 Qualifiers with 4 goals (2 vs Ghana, 2 vs Togo) with Nigeria finishing 3rd after a 3-2 win vs Ghana.

He also bagged 8 goals from 7 games (391mins) at the U19 2025/26 National Youth League's North Central Conference standing (9 teams) and added 5 more goals including a brace⚽️⚽️ in the NY-League Super 8 final vs Grassrunners FC which saw Muiz Adeleke square up against Angelo Agbejoye (now at Djurgardens in Sweden) and Abdoulaye Agbejoye (his striking competition in the Flying Eagles Final List).

His other 3 goals in the National Youth League Super 8 came against Kwara Football academy (1) and Supreme Kings FA (2).
