“Simon Cletus Shines as Man of the Match in Golden Eaglets’ Stalemate Against Burkina Faso
In a hard-fought encounter between the Golden Eaglets and Burkina Faso resulting in a 0-0 draw, Simon Cletus emerged as the standout player, earning the Man of the Match title. The midfielder from Mavlon FC showcased his exceptional skills, particularly in controlling the midfield and launching attacks.
Cletus came close to securing victory for Nigeria with a promising attempt on goal in the 65th minute. Despite the Golden Eaglets’ dominance throughout the match, they struggled to convert their possession into clear-cut scoring opportunities.
Looking ahead, Manu Garba’s squad will turn their focus to their upcoming group fixture against Niger Republic, scheduled for Sunday at the University Stadium in Accra. With aspirations for a stronger performance, the team aims to secure a positive result in their quest for success in the WAFU Cup.”
