Manu Garba: Golden Eaglets will improve against Burkina Faso
Golden Eaglets head coach Manu Garba believes his team will continue to improve when they face Burkina Faso in their next match at the 2025 WAFU B U-17 Championship, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
The Eaglets secured a place in the semi-finals with a convincing 4-1 win over Benin Republic on Wednesday.
Garba's side will look to top Group B when they take on Burkina Faso on Saturday in Yamoussoukro.
The top two teams in the competition will earn a spot in the 2026 Africa U-17 Cup of Nations, which will determine Africa's representatives at the 2026 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Qatar.
"We will see a better Nigerian team as the tournament progresses,” Garba said via Dailypost.
“The team was only assembled about a month ago and this was only their first international match.”
The Golden Eaglets will aim to build on their impressive win over Benin Republic as they seek to make a strong impression in the tournament.
