U-17 AFCON: Eaglets top group after Uganda stalemate
Two-time champions Nigeria finished as winners of Group A of the ongoing Africa U-17 Cup of Nations in Tanzania after forcing Uganda to a 1-1 draw at the Chamazi Stadium in Dar es Salaam on Saturday.
In a pattern that has stuck with them since the tournament began, the Golden Eaglets created several chances, wasting them one after the other, starting from Akinkunmi Amoo’s poor touch after a sweet team move in the 17th minute.
Three minutes later, Wisdom Ubani lashed a shot narrowly over the bar from a free-kick, and at the other end, Uganda came close to taking the lead when Samson Kasozi headed the ball against the upright from a corner.
