Golden Eaglet thrashes Iran 4-1.... who is next?

The 4 goals to 1 thrashing of Iran by Nigeria’s Golden Eaglets have seen them through to the quarter final of the ongoing FIFA U-17 World Cup in UAE. Nigeria will face Uruguay in their next game.

Three-time champions Nigeria had no trouble with Iran racking up three goals in the first half en route to a 4-1 scoreline. The result sets up a quarter-final date for the Nigerians with Uruguay, a game in which they will likely be missing two of their best attackers – Kalechi Iheanacho and Success Isaac – through injury.

The Golden Eaglets came out all guns blazing in the opening seconds. Iheanacho, who scored four goals in the opener on this very pitch, fired a vicious shot from the corner of the penalty area inside the first minute that only just flew over the bar. It wasn’t long after that Chidiebere Nwakali raced through midfield on the end of an elegant heel flick from Zaharaddeen Bello. His shot from way out, however, also went over the goal.
