Flying Eagles

Flying Eagles first choice goalkeeper Joshua Enaholo is expected to be in goal when Nigeria take on Ghana in the semifinal of the Africa Youth Championship.

Enaholo was suspended for the Flying Eagles' last group game against the Ivory Coast after picking up a red card in their second game against Congo.

His deputy Olorunleke Ojo failed to live up to expectations arising fears among soccer loving Nigerians with reports that Enaholo was suspended for two games.

However team secretary Aliyu Ibrahim Auwal allayed such fears in a telephone chat with SL10.ng from Senegal saying the shot stopper was only suspended for one game.

"Enaholo suspension ended after the game against Ivory Coast all things been equal he should be back in goal for the Ghana game" He said

The team who were on their way back to Dakar after playing their last group game away from the city will battle Ghana for a spot in the finals of the Africa youth championship on Wednesday.

Both teams met twice in friendly games prior to the tournament with Nigeria winning once and the other ended in a draw.
