Nigeria U17 Player Ratings Vs Hungary : Tijani Leads By Example; Jinadu Composed; Amoo Provides The X-Factor

Allnigeriasoccer.com presents the players scorecards from the goal-laden affair :

The Starters

Goalkeeper

Daniel Jinadu: Was composed and thoroughly exposed by his defenders for the two goals he let in, of which none was his fault. (7/10)

Defenders

Timilehin Adeniyi: Struggled to provide adequate cover for the defence and will have to work on his primary duties.

Scored his side's third goal after recovering well. (7/10)

Ferdinand Ikenna: Battled well with Andras Nemeth and was much better than his defensive peers. (7.5/10)

Usman Ibrahim: Had a nightmare evening dealing with the pace of Samuel Major earlier on but grew into the clash as it wore on.

Scored a textbook header. A bail out goal. (7/10)

Charles Etim: Saw little of the ball down his flank and really was expected to have done more.

A hushed performance from Etim. (6/10)

Midfielders

Tijani Samson: Five-star display from the skipper. Commanded the midfield pretty well.

Sent Krisztian Hegyi the wrong way from the spot to draw his team level earlier in the first half before thrashing home a brilliant late freekick for his second. (8.5/10)



Olakunle Olusegun: Shooting was uncharacteristically wayward though he kept plugging away and keeping the opposition defence on their toes. (7/10)

Wisdom Ubani: Drew a foul from Donath Orosz in the box and was a victim of some vicious challenges from the opponents. Troubled Hungary with his running and directness. (7.5/10)

The Substitutes

Akinwunmi Amoo: Put up some lovely footwork in the final third after coming on. Showed quite why he is highly rated with the much needed creativity he introduced. (7/10)

Ibrahim Jabaar: Saw his header hooked off the line by Hegyi shortly after replacing Ubani and was an industrious presence up front. (7/10)

Daniel Francis: A very late change.
