Rio Olympic: Eagles beat Japan in a 5-4 thriller
Despite arriving the venue of the match late, Nigeria’s under 23 male team fired by the spirit of patriotism and zeal, Friday morning defeated their Japanese counterparts 5-4. Nigeria’s Sadiq Umar opened the scoring chart, but the Japanese were able to equalise through a penalty kick. The hero of the match, Oghenekaro Etebo scored four goals, which sealed the fate of the Japanese. Not even late effort at equalisation could save them as their effort could only fetch four goals. The I can do it spirit of Nigerians is never in short supply.
