Nigeria U17 played a 1-1 draw with hosts Korea U17 in the
opening match of the 2015 Suwon International Youth
Football Tournament played on Wednesday.
Funsho Bamgboye’s 26th minute strike pulled the Golden
Eaglets back to level terms after Lee Sang Heon’s third
minute effort put Choi Jin-cheul’s side aside in the third
minutes.
“I think it was a fair result though we would have loved to
win,” coach Emmanuel Amuneke said after the game.
"It was a good game for us; we created more chances in the
second half though we failed to take them."
With the result, Nigeria and Korea are jointly in second
position behind Brazil who beat Croatia 2-1 in the
tournament's opening match.
Amuneke’s wards face Brazil on Thursday while Croatia slug
it out with Croatia.
