Nigeria ’ s Flying Eagles , yesterday, crashed out of the 2017 AFCON Under - 20 finals following a stunning unexpected defeat by their Sudanese opponents at the Teslim Balogun Stadium , Surulere , Lagos
The Flying Eagles had won the first leg encounter 2-1 in Khartoum , Sudan a fortnight ago and playing in front of the Lagos fans , they failed to prove to be the better team with a 4- 3 defeat
Samuel Chukwueze , who was a thorn in the flesh of the Sudanese defence, shot the Flying Eagles ahead in the first quarter of the match with a stunning shot from the edge of the visitors ’ penalty area that beat goalkeeper Isgag Adam Abdalla hands down . Chukwueze had initiated the move a few metres from the centre circle evading three opposing players before unleashing the shot.
