Telecommunications giant, Globacom, has congratulated the Golden Eaglets campaigning in the on-going African U-17 Championship on its qualification for the final, describing it is a good omen for Nigerian football.
A statement by Globacom in Lagos yesterday described the Eaglets as true conquerors, urging them to go for the trophy.
The Golden Eaglets, who opened scoring in the semi final match, trailed the Young Carthage Eagles of Tunisia 2-1 before making a remarkable comeback that saw the encounter ending 4-2 in Nigeria's favour.
"We reckon with the great fighting spirit the team has, so far demonstrated and we believe the spirit will help the team to achieve the ultimate goal of lifting the trophy," the statement said.
"A team that has scored 17 goals in four matches deserves special recognition and we urge them not to rest on their oars until the trophy is won on Saturday."
Globacom also commended the Eaglets' coaching crew for their tenacity while asking Nigerians to sustain their support and prayers for the team.
"We started this year well by winning the AFCON trophy in South Africa and we should continue the winning streak in Morocco," the statement further said.
Globacom is the major partner of the Nigeria Football Federation and official sponsor of the Nigerian national teams.
