Why Flying Eagles failed to reach final – Amuneke
The Nigeria U20s battle South Africa in the losers’ final tomorrow after they fell on penalties to Mali in the semifinal.
“The Flying Eagles depended on individual talents when they ought to play as a team,” remarked Amuneke, who is on the CAF Technical Study Group for the U20 AFCON in Niger.
“The reality of modern day football is that you have to play as a team.
“So, there’s a lot of work to do in the team.
“The good thing is that the AFCON is a stepping stone to the World Cup and they now have to fortify the team to represent Africa well at the World Cup.”
