Negative:

Annoying (Alampasu's taunts, the excessive and unnecessary dancing and yelling as they received their medals)
Obnoxious (tacky celebrations, rubbing it in... very unsportsmanlike.)

But congratulations to them.

All attributes of the Average Nigerian really

They Are Made of Daniel Brian's Blood! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes

Superb

Awesome!!!

SORRY BRO HERE IS THE SUMMRY

Nigeria became the most successful team in FIFA U-17 World Cup
history with a 3-0 win over holders Mexico at the Mohammad Bin Zayed
Stadium in Abu Dhabi. The final was a rematch of the 6-1 win Nigeria
inflicted on the Mexicans in Group F play and sees the Golden Eaglets
lay hands on the junior world trophy for the fourth time in their history,
one better than South American giants Brazil. When the final whistle
went in the UAE capital, fans and players alike rejoiced, fingers pointed
to the sky, with what has become the traditional Nigerian celebration of:
“yes, yes yes!”

Mexico kept the ball for a full two minutes at the start of the game,
moving it around well and making the Nigerians chase. El Tri even
managed the first chance on goal after six minutes. Osvaldo Rodriguez
crossed from the left, but Alejandro Diaz couldn’t keep his close-range
effort the right side of the post. Two minutes on and Ivan Ochoa – who
scored twice in the semi-final win over Argentina – saw his off-balance
header pushed over the bar by Dele Alampasu.

The corner came to nothing for the Mexicans, but Nigeria benefitted
greatly by bursting out on a classic counter-attack. Kelechi Iheanacho
went flying up the pitch. With just one Mexican defender in position, the
No10 Golden Eaglet laid the ball in for Taiwo Awoniyi who then fed it on
to Musa Yahaha, who had a little help from Erick Aguirre. The Mexican
midfielder mistakenly hit the ball into his own net in an attempt to
recover.

With the score 1-0, Musa Muhammed was giving the Mexicans fits with
his rampaging runs up the right side. He pinned the opponents back at
every opportunity. As the first half pushed toward the interval, the
Africans upped their tempo in search of a second goal. Yahaya rattled
the crossbar with a stunning effort from 20 yards out after 38 minutes.
Pressure was mounting and the fans in the stands were on their feet
when Awoniyi’s bicycle-kick from the penalty spot forced Raul Gudino
into a magnificent reaction save in the dying moments of the half.
The second period began with a frenzy of attacks at both ends of the
pitch, but it was Nigeria who made theirs count, making it 2-0 in the
56th minute. Captain Muhammed unleashed a wicked swirling shot that
Mexican keeper Gudino simply couldn’t hang on to. He spilled a
rebound directly to the feet of the most dangerous man on the pitch,
and Iheanacho made no mistake dispatching his sixth goal of the
tournament.
.

With a quarter-hour to go, Mexico managed to carve out a rare second-
half chance, but Ochoa’s header from close-range slipped wide of the
post as the holders began to wilt under the ceaseless pressure of the
buzzing Nigerians. Muhammed added a third with ten minutes to go,
curling a sublime free-kick into the top corner.
Anyone in UAE who had the pleasure to see them will tell you that this
Nigerian team were the best on offer. Even a few of the Mexican fans
were mumbling “yes, yes, yes” when the final whistle went on Nigeria’s
glorious campaign here in UAE.
.
.
Apart from winning the cup, Nigeria also won the FIFA Fair Play
Award while Iheanacho won the Golden Ball (for the Best Player) and
the Silver Boot for emerging the second highest goal scorer with six
goals behind Bolden Berisha of Sweden, who won the Golden Boot
with seven goals.
.
Alampasu won the Golden Glove having emerged he best goal keeper
in the tournament.

HIGHLY-OVERAGED

awesome

Dynamic!, Superp! Exceptional, Outstanding above all GOLDEN!!!

I mean dis guys are up to something. And the world was shocked at their explosion congrats brothers.[color=#770077][/color]

AWESOME!!!

SPECTACULAR SKILLS

abso-bloody-lutely spectacular

For those saying overaged

Birikiti: I believe posters should be objective and know facts behind a story before coming out with categorical statements!

1) This set of Eaglets is a result of long term planning that started 3 years ago with the NFF assembling a National U-13 team.

2) Many of these guys have been together in different academies across the country since then. Some have gone out to play in Youth tournaments in SA, Europe and Asia over the years.

3) The coaches Manu, Amunike, Ugbade and Amadi started screening 2 years ago. Many of these guys had to take leaves of absence to go for school exams, in fact, most of them just wrote the last SSCE exams.

4) MRI tests were carried out at several stages and I can categorically say that up to 8 key players were dropped because they were on the borderline of the MRI results. Now the MRI is not an absolute test as even trialists like 16 year old Abuchi Obinwa, who was born and brought up in the USA failed the test.

5) We need to appreciate the work the coaches have put in the team even in the face of disqualification of so many key players. We have not seen such a free scoring Nigerian side since Japan 93 which we know was populated by relatively "older" and more experienced U-17s (lol).

6) I believe this team is a foundation for Nigerian domination of World football in the not too distant future! If they are well managed and nutured, with clubs that have a history of youth development taking most of them... then I can wager that Nigeria will win the World Cup in Qatar 2022 (8 years from now) all other things (like good administration/ adequate government backing) being equal

7) In addition to the more visible prospect, Success, Ihenacho, Yahaya, Mohammed (capt) I would like to point out the tireless workers in the team; the 2 central defenders Zaharadin Bello and Abubakar as well as pit-bull defensive midfielder Akinjide Idowu as massive prospects in this team.

I wish the team would win the cup but in-experience and youth exuberance might be critical factors. Notwithstanding, the boys are the future of Nigerian football irrespective of the outcome of this tournament.

9) Lastly, has anyone noticed that almost every part of Nigeria is represented in this team? And before folks shout federal character policy, everyone has acquitted themselves well showing they all deserved their places! It goes to show that Nigeria's diversity is a strength we should build on to become a world super power. Let us not allow politicians divide us, together we can make Nigeria take a place of pride in the comity of nations!

Thank you all.
