Nazifi Tips Flying Eagles for World Cup Glory

Nigeria U-20 attacker Nazifi Yahaya

Nigeria U-20 attacker Nazifi Yahaya believes the Flying Eagles will top their Group at the FIFA U-20 World Cup in Poland.

 

Yahaya, who plays for Soenderjysk U-19 was part of the 2019 U-20 AFCON tournament in Niger Republic, where he scored against Burundi.

The former Kano Pillars youngster feels confident that the Flying Eagles won’t disappoint Nigerians in Poland when they face USA, Ukraine and Qatar in Group D

“I am tipping the Flying Eagles to top Group D ahead of USA, Ukraine and Qatar because we have the team that can excel,” Nazifi stated, when asked if Nigeria can top the group.

The 18-year-old added: “I am not underrating our opponents but with what I have seen in the camp of the Flying Eagles I know that we have the players and the mental strength to beat all our three first round foes and take it up from there in the second round.”

The Flying Eagles are currently in Germany for a three-week intensive training programme ahead of the FIFA U20 World Cup in Poland.
