[Folami David]

Golden Eaglets' Assistant Coach, Nduka Ugbade, has emphasised that the team is not yet thinking of meeting tournament's favourites Brazil inthe final of the 2013 UAE FIFA Under-17 World Cup.
.
Nigeria and Brazil are seeking a record fourth title at this level and there is the small talk that they could both navigate through for an eventual clash on Nov. 8 at the Mohammed Bin Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.
.
"We don't want to be bothered with the tag of a favourite and our philosophy remains the same- one game at a time," Ugbade saidmatter-of-factly.
.
"Our objective right from the start was to win our matches and we continue to be guided by that."
.
Golden Eaglets opened their account at the 15th edition of the global cadet championship with a comprehensive 6-1 win over defending champions, Mexico; drew 3-3 with Sweden; thrashed Iraq and Iran 5-0 and 4-1 respectively.
.
"It is only in pool and betting that you forecast matches but we are in for a serious business here," noted Ugbade.
.
"We don't have to count the chicks before they are hatched and we are looking forward to every game with a winning mentality."
.
The Golden Eaglets' train move to the 10,877- capacity Sharjah Stadium where they will meet Uruguay in the quarter finals on Saturday.
