3 Important Life Lessons From Nigeria's World Cup Victory. by obironald(m): 3:17pm On Nov 09, 2015
HBD to me. The Eaglets have spiced my day

Here are 3 Important Life Lessons I learnt this morning from Nigeria's World Cup Victory over Mali

1. TO WIN IT IN LIFE, UR GUT AND GRITS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR SIZE-
The Malians suppressed the eaglets in the 1st half with their physical size, but the eaglets fought hard with their spirits alive and strong and this gave them the deserved victory.

2. NEVER BE TOO DESPERATE TO MAKE IT IN LIFE, TRUST UR ABILITY AND LEVERAGE ON UR SKILLS, THEN THINGS WILL FALL IN YOUR PLACE.
The No9 eaglet ,Osimehin needed just one goal to make a world record of 10 goals to be ever scored in history, when nigeria won a penalty kick early in the game, he did'nt struggle to take d kick. Although Nigeria lost it, osimehin's morale wld hav been shattered if he had been the one that played the miss, however he scored d decisive record goal at d right time and still maintained his momentum to d end.

3. YOU ARE NOTHING WITHOUT GOD'S GRACE -
The ball possession btw both sides were equal,The no of shots on goal were also equal. Only a slight defensive slack from the Malians gave the eaglets 2goals in 3mins and that was the victory. Even the Nigerian coach told his boys to cool down when they ran to jubilate with him after each of the 2 goals. He saw grace at work. They knelt and gave God the glory after the match.
