U-17 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2009: SPAIN LOSE SEMI-FINAL 1 - 3 TO HOST NIGERIA

SPAIN lost 1-3 to host NIGERIA in the semi-final clash of the U/17
WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS
. The local team was just too strong & too
quick, as they took advantage of Spain’s weakness on the flanks to
enter & score their goals. Spain missed their chances & they reacted

too late. Nigeria are worthy & deserved winners.
