Coach of Sweden’s Under-17 team, Roland Larsson, is tipping the Golden Eaglets of Nigeria to defeat Mexico in the final of the U-17 World Cup on Friday and become champions.
Larsson could not nothing from the bench, as the Eaglets ran riot against his boys in Tuesday’s semi-final, beating them 3-0 to qualify for the grand finale.
“I think they are the favourites to win the trophy,” Larsson told a correspondent of Vanguard in the UAE.
“They have been so unbelievable here playing some good attacking football, they are my favourites to win the Final and hope they achieve all the success they can get because they deserve it.
“I believe the Nigerians are the world champions already and expect them to justify it having defeated Mexico once in the group stage.”
If Nigeria wins the competition, it will be for a record fourth time.
