Nigeria U20s Coach, Manu Garba : We Entertained The Crowd

Flying Eagles coach Manu Garba was pleased with the overall performance of his team in their 4 - 0 thrashing of North Korea on Thursday morning.

But the Nigeria U20s manager has admitted that his wards did not play to instructions in the first half, with the Asians holding the African champions to a goalless draw before the intermission.

“We had a plan for what we wanted to do (in the first half) but they weren’t doing the right thing,” Manu Garba said in his post - match comments. 

“We talked to the team and in the second half and they got the job done. Korea DPR have a good side, and they played much better than they did against the Hungarians, but they are lacking when it comes to finishing.

“It’s not all about winning, but it’s about entertaining the crowd, and that’s something that our side did. ”

After match day two in Group E, Nigeria sit third on the table, level on three points with Hungary, who have a superior goal difference.
