F/Eagles beat Kaduna United
Flying Eagles coach Obuh
It was another competitive test for the Flying Eagles on a very terrible Bako Kontagora Stadium pitch in Minna.
Substitute striker Sikiru Alimi scored the match winner on 87 minutes after a swift counter attack.
Alimi made up for fluffing a sitter on 70 minutes.
Kaduna United also had their chances. Striker Yau saw his 84th minute shot from outside the box tipped for a corner by skipper and goalkeeper Samuel Okani.
And also a minute to full time, Okani again made a fine save to deny the NPL side.
Last Sunday, the Flying Eagles were held to a 0-0 draw by another NPL side ABS FC in Ilorin.
The U20s fly out to Rwanda for another warm-up game on Monday before they take on Tanzania on Sunday, July 29.
Flying Eagles vs Kaduna:
Samuel Okani - Abubakar Hassan (Kingsley Patrick 61), Aliyu Mohammed (Tope Aluko 85), Ikechukwu Okorie (Boniface Abonima 61), Chizoba Amaefule, Agboyi Ovbokha, Moses Orkuma (Harrison Egbune 46), Chidi Osuchukwu, Uche Agbo (Sikiru Alimi 46), Yahaya Adamu (Alhaji Gero 55) Aminu Umar(Shehu Abdullahi 90)
Coach: John Sam Obuh
