Golden Eaglets Maintain Perfect Preparations for WAFU B U-17 Tournament With Three Wins

By Niyi Busari 

 Golden Eaglets continued their winning momentum on Friday with a 3-2 victory over Bandex Football Academy of Kebbi State in a keenly contested test match, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The fixture forms part of the team’s build-up to the WAFU B U-17 Championship, scheduled to take place in Abeokuta, Ogun State this September.

Despite trailing 2-1 at halftime, the five-time world champions regrouped in the second half, showing greater composure and attacking intent to overturn the deficit against a resilient Bandex side.

The result marks the Golden Eaglets’ third consecutive win in their ongoing preparatory series. Earlier in the week, the Nigeria U-17s thrashed Explora FC 4-0 on Wednesday morning before recording a narrow 1-0 win over GASA of Ilorin later the same day.

With each outing, the team appears to be sharpening both its tactical discipline and attacking efficiency ahead of the regional tournament, where victory will be key to qualifying for next year’s Africa U-17 Cup of Nations.
