WAFU B U20 Boys Tourney: Flying Eagles Spank Junior Cheetahs 4-1, Reach Semi-finals
The match began with a slow response from the Flying Eagles, as the Benin Republic team approached the game with intensity. This strategy paid off when Junior Olugbade scored a brilliantly executed free-kick into the bottom corner, giving the Junior Cheetahs the lead in the 24th minute.
The scoreline was level going into recess, thanks to an equaliser from Mohammed Abdullahi.
In the second half, the Flying Eagles quickly asserted dominance, demonstrating effective play within the box. A well-coordinated buildup led to a pass for Ezekiel Kpangu, who scored effortlessly, bringing the score to 2-1 in favour of the Flying Eagles.
The team extended their lead to 3-1 when Imrana Mohammed skillfully navigated through the Junior Cheetahs’ defence and successfully placed the ball past the goalkeeper.
As the match drew to a close, the Flying Eagles maintained their momentum with a strategic long ball for Imrana Mohammed, who then assisted Abdulahi Majid. Majid’s remarkable shot from outside the box resulted in the fourth goal of the match for the Flying Eagles.
The game concluded with a score of 4-1 in favour of the Flying Eagles, and defender Odinaka Okoro was selected as the Man of the Match.
