what brought Mikel issue into this, is it only Mikel that was robbed during the last U20 world cup, if i may say it is entire Nigeria football following fans that was rob, he has degenerate into an arrogant player after that tournament and it is time he retrace his step.

It is what happens after this tournament that is IMPORTANT.
The decison makers at the NFA will just throw these raw talents away and bring in some idiots to represent Nigeria in the next Under-20.
A good Football Association should nurture these boys . . . .Take em on an African tour and set up 40 friendly matches with other African clubs.
Strike a good understanding and team chemistry in the team so they can conquer the next age-grade competiton.

wow! we won the game 2-0, too bad I missed it. So its Germany or England in the semi final. Those NFA officials are bunch of fat greedy men even if these guys win this tournament trust me you won't hear of them again. Its only the ones who are lucky to get good clubs in Europe we might see.

Nigeria maintain excellent progress
Nigeria are through to the semi-finals at the FIFA U-17 World Cup Korea 2007 after defeating Argentina 2-0 at the Cheonan Sports Complex on Sunday 2 September. The Africans now meet Germany or England for a place in the Final.

Argentina had the best of the early exchanges in a closely-fought and occasionally physical first half. Nigeria keeper Oladele Ajiboye saved Alexis Machuca's driven free-kick from over 30 yards, before Santiago Fernandez fired over the bar from the edge of the box ten minutes later. But the tables were turned on 33 minutes when the Africans took the lead after captain Lukman Haruna went down in the penalty area under a challenge from Fernando Meza.

Haruna picked himself up and dispatched the spot-kick to hand the Golden Eaglets the lead. Then on the stroke of half-time a glorious exchange of passes on the left sent Macauley Chrisantus clear in front of goal, the striker making no mistake to double his side's advantage and take his personal tally for the tournament to six.

The Africans had the better of the chances after the restart, Matthew Edile coming within a whisker of increasing the lead with a low drive. Argentina introduced a fresh striker in the shape of Carlos Benitez and the gamble looked set to bear fruit, but Maximiliano Oliva missed a good opening and Ajiboye beat out Eduardo Salvio's long-range effort. The final clear-cut chance fell to Nigeria, but Kabiru Akinsola's shot ended in the side-netting and the margin of victory remained at 2-0.

Germany played very well in the quarter finals. I think it will be a tough match but hopefully we'll scale through.
