WAFU Qualifier: Mailantarki Care Shocks Flying Eagles 1-0
Ibrahim Lateef
An unimpressive Flying Eagles suffered a defeat to a lively Mailantarki Care FC in one of its series of preparatory games on Wednesday in Abuja, ahead the WAFU Zone B qualifier, reports BSNSports.com.ng.
The reigning Champions of the 2024 International Youth Championship in Denmark (Dana Cup) produced an all-around performance against the Flying Eagles at the MKO Abiola Stadium, FIFA Goal Project Pitch. Coach Aliyu Zubairu's U-20 team began preparation last week ahead of the upcoming WAFU Championship scheduled in Lome, Togo, where the representatives of the Zone in the 2025 U-20 Nations Cup will emerge. Sensational wing-wizard Miko Dalha scored the only goal of the game following a delightful footwork before smashing into the near post before the break. The host could have equalized from the spot deep into the game just for Mailantarki Care goalie Abbati Muhammed to punch away the penalty kick. However, the Flying Eagles defeated Water FC 1-nil in its first game courtesy of a strike from Bayelsa United forward Rabiu Abdullahi.
