Nigeria’s highly skillful U-15 team beats Swaziland 3-1 at the ongoing Africa Youth Games to win the gold medal at the event.
The young stars played with a mastery that was unmatchable all through as they scored ten convincing goals in five matches during the games but only conceded once.
Young Elisha and Ali Musa were amongst the players that ensured Nigeria finished with ten points leaving Tanzania and Mali to pick up the silver and bronze medals respectively.
Commenting at the end of the game, coach of the team, Danladi Nasidi says “I’m a happy man today and I must say the one month camping exercise we had in Abuja before the tournament really helped us.”
The Nigerian squad is expected back home immediately after the closing ceremony of the African Youth Games.
