Title: Golden Eaglets Face Stiff Test In Mexico
Post by: Folami David on Oct 18, 2013, 04:24 PM
Group F opens up with a bang tomorrow.
.
Three-time winners Nigeria, the most successful team in the competition's history, face holders and two-time champions Mexico in Al Ain City.
.
Nigeria's record is amazing having appeared in the final of the FIFA U-17 World Cup 6 times - winning three (1985, 1993, 2007) and losing three (1987, 2001, 2009).
.
Meanwhile as we know El Tri caught the world's attention with glory on home turf two years ago but face an immediate test against a Nigerian side they have only faced once before in the tournament's 30- year history.
.
The Mexicans won 1-0 in Canada in 1987, although it was the Africans who went through to the next round by virtue of their superior goal difference.

I strongly believe that the Golden Eaglets can win that game. They are a very strong side and the whole world knows it
