Golden Eaglets
|
Telecommunications giant, Globacom, has congratulated the
Golden Eaglets campaigning in the on-going African U-17 Championship on its
qualification for the final, describing it is a good omen for Nigerian
football.
A statement by Globacom in Lagos yesterday described the
Eaglets as true conquerors, urging them to go for the trophy.
The Golden Eaglets, who opened scoring in the semi final
match, trailed the Young Carthage Eagles of Tunisia 2-1 before making a
remarkable comeback that saw the encounter ending 4-2 in Nigeria’s favour.
“We reckon with the great fighting spirit the team has, so
far demonstrated and we believe the spirit will help the team to achieve the
ultimate goal of lifting the trophy,” the statement said.
“A team that has scored 17 goals in four matches deserves
special recognition and we urge them not to rest on their oars until the trophy
is won on Saturday.”
Globacom also commended the Eaglets’ coaching crew for their
tenacity while asking Nigerians to sustain their support and prayers for the
team.
“We started this year well by winning the AFCON trophy in
South Africa and we should continue the winning streak in Morocco,” the
statement further said.
Globacom is the major partner of the Nigeria Football
Federation and official sponsor of the Nigerian national teams.
