Shame on you, my Mannschaft. Up by 3 goals in the 2nd half and can't win ? Keep focused gents. That's the only way you'll win. You have the skill and discipline... JUST KEEP FOCUSED !!!

I realy feel happy seeing the u-17 world cup being hosted by Nigeria this give me hope that Nigeria can become that great country which it has been before.I believe every team is here to win the tournament but one thing is sure that an African team is still going to win the tournament seeing that Ghana won the just concluded U20 world cup in Egypt. they will play with that as a kind of motivation for them. I believe!

LON_UK (England)....a friendly reminder :):) African teams have been doing WONDERS for YEARS! And we will CONTINUE to do more :) AMEN! Dont forget, Nigeria has won the U17 world cup 3 times, Ghana twice. Infact, Ghana just won the U20 world cup which ended more than a week ago in Egypt. Good Job Nigeria!

"In the first half we were punished because we didn't follow our coach's instructions. In the second, we came out with the sole intention of applying the game plan, without even thinking of the scoreline." Stanley Okoro, Nigeria forward
