Flying Eagles coach Paul Aigbogun has stated that the Nigeria U20 national team will give it all at the FIFA U20 world cup which starts on Thursday in Poland.
Aigbogun speaking in a chat with www.brila.net said the Nigeria U20 national team was carefully selected to ensure continuity and that even some of the players in the current team will be able to still participate at the next edition of the tournament after this present tournament in Poland.
“What I can assure is that we are going to give 100 percent in the competition and that is the most important thing. This is a developmental team that should go on and play from the U20, the U20 shouldn’t be the end for the team.
It’s a route to develop, when you look at the team, there are few young players that can probably play towards the next U21 and that’s been very important towards the decisions that we have made.”
Nigeria’s Flying Eagles will open her world cup campaign this Friday against Qatar at the FIFA U20 world cup in Poland.
