I believe poor management and an underdeveloped league is the reason we loose all these fantastic talents. A developmental approach should have been taken. Atleast 50% of the under 17 team should be promoted to the under 20s and not having a brand new team. We are the most successful under17 team in the world but we dont have a single under 20 world cup trophy. Moreso this players should be guided in the type of deals they sign with foreign clubs. Some just sign 6 or 7 years with some club in a deserted European or north African country all in the name of playing abroad and their careers end there. We still have a lot to do to develop our football. Always having to convince players of dual nationality isnt cool and will cause internal decay.
Going through the comments,it is sad seeing how quickly Nigerians want to run down their country.nobody had given one verifiable proof, yet you all came to the conclusion that the players were overaged because they are not playing at the highest levels today.please look at the other countries that you believe were using the correctly aged players how many of them are playing at top levels today?please lets comment sensibly
@@jaz11422622 That's obvious Sha. And this is one of the reasons why we have not been having a better transition in the Nigeria football team. It is affecting our game a lot. God bless Nigeria
Nigeria always produced at this level but just dnt do that at senior level.. Many football powers in Africa did it at junior level but faded later.. African continent can win world cup but needs to get it right..
Nigeria winning the cup Is not on age factors........ Other African and European countries also have aged players among them so the question is "why are they not also winning" Nija keep it up!!!!!
OWOEYE TOLULOPE EMMANUEL bull sheet.keep lying to and deceiving yourself. They know we cheat but laugh at our self deceit while they develop really talented young players who go on to sign big lucrative contracts and they win senior soccer championships were talent and technicality is key. Check out the prize money for winning World Cup or senior tournaments versus this junior tourneys Nigeria dominates. Now tell me who is playing or deceiving who. The fact that this dominance is not translated to senior level tells you something is wrong and their is a disconnect somewhere. You would think just like most professions they will get better with age and experience. Can’t teach an old dog new tricks remember that while you justify age cheating in youth championships
OWOEYE TOLULOPE EMMANUEL prize money World Cup is $38 million. Now tell me how much N1.3 billion if invested properly in Nigeria soccer with world class training and facilities what that can produce. Nigeria needs to shift from the penny wise pound foolish mentality
sani emmanuel is retired now🥺... so sad... he was the tournament highest goal scorer onazi career wasnt bad though ramon azeez😩 stanley okoro😩😩 and the likes of other didn't do well
This Country has produced Plenty great young talented players, but today NFF can't even organize or locate these young stars whereabouts...all they think is to plan for the best hotel that prepares delicious meal for them and their staffs, and after that they will carry bele with small size uniform, can't even train with the boys on every tournament, only sit down on the side line and be pointing fingers about whom to replace who. them Eagles staffs can't even speak to the NFF to organize these youngsters, Na only chop from this hotel to this hotel..country to country.with their swell up bele. Take a look at these Polished young talented players, fast and energetic, nobody even see them again. This Country supposed have won the world cup for couple of times by now. Even the successful coaches sef, they always fire them or whatever whenever they returns with a trophy. SMBH.
12years on Compare the German squad progress with ours 💁🏾💁🏾 Cheating in these tournament has always been our downfall. We need to start trusting the process
If you all come to the conclusion that this players are overaged because we didn't hear about them again then let someone show me just 3 from this German under 17 that's still relevant.
Please NFF and Nigeria, where are these set of players and what are they currently doing? If they have been abandoned to there fate? Why would anyone want to play for the country Nigeria?
They really know and understand that if AFRICANS will be given equal rights and chances, we'll overcome them because of our ability to POSITIVE THINKING !!!
Adults playing with youths that's why they are so good. Some will say politics killing the sports, How can u develop someone playing at his peak with kids? European clubs certainly came for these guys and when playing with their mates, they were no where to be found. These adults are only good at playing with youths.
@Devoice Yawolethat's what most of us africans know. To abuse and cheat and never progressing. All my friends are footballers. I know the what's up. We joke about it. But we know it is hussling. MRU works for africa?
And what makes you think the other nationals I mean the whites don't use over age players and you think FIFA don't check on things be for approving players to play
Superb entertainment. One just thinks of Barcelona or Manchester City as one watches these Eaglets. I think only Kayode and Emmanuel broke through among them to bigger things but i may be mistaken
Ter Stegen of Barcelona, Bernd Leno of Arsenal, Mario Götze, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, Kevin Volland of Monaco. Some of them like Florian Trinks retired because of a serious ankle injury. Several players in this German team went on to win World Cups and Champions Leagues, while the Nigerian old men pretending to be teenagers faded into oblivion and irrelevance where they belong.
Every single player in European all are rich both small teams of big but we Africans no,, mostly Nigeria the leaders have killed the dreams of the youth,, they can never appreciate anything that done by the youth in Nigeria...
No where to be found define these boys now , Nigeria should learn how to grow talents, imagine having these stars in the super eagles,but corruption won't allow, how can someone be paying to play for his country. There was a country
Why is i Nigerian under 17 usually classic and world best .... Even if they don't win it..they will go real far in the tournament... But from under 20 ..apart from Mikel set .... Nigeria won't do well again?
These guys were just too old for their opponents at the time. None of them could have been less than 26. That's why most of them have not been heard of since then. Only Omeruo though.
I'm a Nigerian, I can bet with my life that all those players, I mean all of them are above 17 years, Some of them are in their 30s, Nigeria have won the U17 world cup for up to 5 times but have not crossed out of round 16 in senior FIFA World Cup. In terms of football, we can play like the European but our system is too corrupt/very bad.
Shut the fuck up these boys were actually young look at their faces .They are not as old as you lead on .You can't do that now ,you will be found out if you use overaged players, cause they use MRI .The major reason we don't do well in senior categories is that those boys disperse in search of greener pastures, develop and adapt a different systems(European systems ) .It's begining to affect Brazil and other south Americans as well .Most and core of their players are in Europe unlike before that most of their player remain in their country . You can't always beat Europeans at their brand of football .As witnessed the four semi fanalists in the last world cup were European countries .It's a different ball game in the youth game where the philosophy is mostly that of the respective countries .
o mumu like you. MRI will never detect the real age, not even 5yrs close. This is from true life experience. I know someone who had to undergo the MRI in Europe in order to file asylum. He claimed 16 but MRI detected he was 19yrs not knowing he was actually 29yrs
All of them were above 17. The captain of the team, Fortune Chukwudi, was later found to be 25 during this tournament. He was sacked from the team and never progressed to the U20.
Those boys showed skill and technique u idiot, age doesn't determine how much skill you have. Also they came from harsh backgrounds how do you want them to look like
Please NFF and Nigeria, where are these set of players and what are they currently doing? If they have been abandoned to there fate? Why would anyone want to play for the country Nigeria?
Progression, pace, buil up, team work, ball retrieval they got everything. Quality team.
What really amazing was the ball retrieval... about two times in one minute... stamina is on another level
I can vividly remember watching these matches -- how time flies. Only Omeruo, Onazi, & Azeez did well in their career -- at least making it to international level and enjoying football money.
Never for once have I been so proud to be a Nigerian like I was during this world cup.
I can agree 💯
I have nothing to be proud of in nigeria,am only proud of the boys simple.
The tournament we didn't get away with blatant cheating...
