The Flying Eagles qualified as one of the best third-placed teams following a 1-1 draw with Ukraine in Bielsko-Biała on Thursday.

Paul Aigbogun’s boys will now face the Young Lions of Teranga, who finished as Group A winners for a chance to battle for a place in the quarter-finals.

The encounter holds on Monday at the Lodz Stadium, with the winner facing either Japan or South Korea in the last eight.
