Golden Eaglets must place personal glory aside against the Netherlands

The football grassroots exponent claims Manu Garba’s boys must become less selfish in front of goal to scale the Oranje hurdle.
Olatunji Samuel Okuku believes Nigeria can defeat the Netherlands if their players tone down their obsession with goals.
Still fresh from their 2-1 defeat to Australia, the Golden Eaglets face the Oranje in Wednesday’s 2019 U17 World Cup Round of 16 fixture.

The five-time world champions have found the net just eight times in three games despite a staggering 74 attempts at goal.

Although not downplaying the quality in Manu Garba’s squad, the football administrator feels the team is still missing a few crucial ingredients and stressed the players have to learn when to go for goal themselves and when to pass it to a teammate.
