U20 AFCON: Flying Eagles battle Mali for final ticket in Niamey

Nigeria vs Mali
Date: wed 13 feb 2019
Time:4.30pm
Venue: Niamey


Seven–time champions, The Flying Eagles of Nigeria will battle for a ticket in the final of the 2019 Africa U20 Cup of Nations when they lock horns with the Junior Eagles of Mali in the tournament’s semi final at the Stade General Seyni Kountche on Wednesday.

The Flying Eagles won the Group A that had host nation Niger Republic, South Africa and Burundi, finishing with seven points.


The Flying Eagles had defeated Burundi and Niger Republic while drawing with South Africa, while Mali finished second in Group B with six points after victories over Burkina Faso and Ghana, and defeat by Senegal.

Head Coach Paul Aigbogun said, on Tuesday, that having met the first target of a FIFA World Cup ticket, his boys will play the remaining matches without any pressure and would turn out to be much better.

“We set the World Cup ticket as our first target for the championship. We have that now, so we are relaxed to go in their and give our best for the second target of winning the trophy, while playing without tension or stiffness.”

Both teams know a little of each other. At the WAFU U20 Cup Tournament in Lome, Togo in December 2018, Mali led by a lone goal in one of the semi final matches until the 82nd minute, before defender Valentine Ozornwafor brought Nigeria level, and the Flying Eagles went ahead to win on penalty shoot –out.

The second semi final, also set for the Stade General Seyni Kountche, will see Group B winners Senegal tackle South Africa.

I need your advice guys . I'm dating this girl for quiet a while now and most time I give her money almost everyday for her feeding but I discovered I need to really see if she's really the girl who she is or she's just pretending. So I decided to limit the way I give her money . some days ago she came to visit me and she saw my friend . she didn't say anything . later the next day my friend told me he saw my girl after some talk my girl was demanding for some gift from her so my friend ask her if she ll be his val and she said yes without hesitation . my friend said he's not interested in dating her , that he just want to sleep with her and break her heart . When i heard this I was ashamed and I'm planning on ending the relationship tomorrow Feb 14 because I don't want a girl to put end to my to the friendship of my pal ... What do you think guys ?

Bros,

before you break up with your girlfriend, first confront her with what your so called friend said and see whether shes gonna say yes or denied the allegation.

afterward, do whatever you wishes

I hope you found my advice useful

Thank you.
