Saddam Auta Continues To Shine For Flying Eagles
Published: December 17, 2014
The Flying Eagles continued their preparations for the African Youth Championship scheduled to take place in Senegal beginning from first week of March with another scrimmage against Kaduna - based Ace Academy.
Saddam Auta Michael’s recent purple patch with the Nigeria Under 20s was replicated on Wednesday afternoon as he scored in the first half in the 3 - 0 victory over the part-timers.
And Mustapha Abdullahi proved to be a modern day fullback with two goals in the second stanza.
The Flying Eagles will play their last friendly before the Christmas break on Friday against Highlanders, which is bankrolled by Sabo Babayaro.
Foreign - based professionals have been invited to join the team as from December 27 but it is confirmed that Musa Yahaya and Isaac Success will not honour the call - up as a result of club commitments.
On the other hand, Porto trainee Chidera Ezeh is doubtful for the camping exercise as he will spend few days in Nigeria before returning to Portugal.
