Nigeria U17 boys national team, the GOLDEN EAGLETS played out a goalless draw with Giant Brillars FC of Enugu, a Nigeria National League side in a friendly match on Tuesday in Abuja as part of the preparation for the forthcoming Wafu tournament billed for Benin Republic.
In a very thrilling game of an end to end attacking football from both sides,the GOLDEN EAGLETS could not really find their rhythm in the first half and the visitors, who paraded bigger players.
The boys from Enugu were dominant and looked more dangerous to hurt the five- time world champions at every point of the game.
However, on resumption in the second half, the energetic Eaglets took complete control of the game, dictating the pace, while GIANT BRILLARS only resorted to occasional counter attacks which failed to break the defence of the Eaglets.
Another friendly game beckons for the Eaglets on Wednesday at the FIFA goal project, MKO stadium, Abuja.
