The Nigeria’s Future Eagles on Sunday, 15th December, 2024, were forced to a 1-1 draw in the second leg of the international friendly game with Morocco U15 national team.
The match, which commenced at 5:00pm, was played at the Complexe Mohammed VI de Football.
The Nigeria U15 team drew the first blood when Praise Adugbo scored in the 12th minute into the game. Having lost the first leg (0-2) to Morocco last Thursday, the Patrick Bassey led team were on the verge of a sweet revenge before a penalty was awarded and converted by Moroccan forward just five minutes to the end of the match.
All efforts by the Nigerians to edge the hosts proved abortive as the center referee sounded the final whistle.
The Nigeria Football Federation under FIFA’s Talent Development Scheme (TDS) invited over 90 players into camp in June, 2024 before the players were cut down to 22 players who traveled to Morocco on Wednesday for their first international friendly match.
The main goal of the FIFA Talent Development Scheme (TDS) is to help raise the standards of national-team football around the world for both men and women, driven by FIFA’s desire for a long-term dedication to global talent development.
