Head coach of Nigeria’s Flying Eagles, Aliyu Zubair, has expressed optimism about his team’s chances of advancing to the knockout stage of the ongoing FIFA U-20 World Cup in Chile following their dramatic 3-2 victory against Saudi Arabia on Friday.
Reacting to the win, Zubair praised the resilience and commitment of his players, describing their determination as the driving force behind the result.
“The boys showed great character and were determined to get this win, and that made the difference,” he said. “Our attention now shifts to the next game against Colombia, where our objective is clear—to secure all three points and guarantee progress to the knockout rounds.”
The victory, Nigeria’s first in the tournament, puts the Flying Eagles on three points and in third place in Group F. They will take on Colombia in their final group fixture at midnight on Monday, knowing a win would likely seal their passage to the next stage.
