Brazil-Nigeria: analysis of the match
Nigeria is making a top-flight start to this U20 World Cup. Winners in front of the Dominican Republic (2-1) then
against Italy (0-2), the Flying Eagles are therefore already qualified from the top of their six points. Ladan Bosso, the coach of Nigeria, will therefore certainly blow some of his best elements on the occasion of this meeting against Brazil. Despite
the controversy surrounding Daniel Bameyi, the right-back and captain of the Flying Eagles who allegedly lied by declaring that he was part of a club that actually does not exist, it is with a certain serenity that they approach this meeting.
Even if it is still a little early to say, the Nigerians seem calibrated to go all the way in this U20 World Cup. There is no doubt that they have in a corner of their heads the desire to reach the final, like their elders, however, fallen on the top step of the competition in 1989 and 2005. For his part, the Brazil was beaten from the start against Italy (2-1) before recovering with style against the Dominican Republic (6-0). They will give everything to win against Nigeria and thus most likely regain the lead of the group thanks to their goal difference (+5 currently).
