<\/p>\nBabangida expressed satisfaction with the performance of the Super Eagles in the draw with the star-studded Samba Boys of Brazil in Singapore.<\/p>\n
Super Eagles had yesterday drew their match with the Selecao after Real Madrid Star Casemiro cancelled out Joel Aribo\u2019s 34th minute goal.<\/p>\n
However, Babangida said the Super Eagles deserved commendation because they were made up of young players who were able to hold the highly experienced Brazilian side to a draw.<\/p>\n
The former winger said such high profile friendly matches would help expose the young players of the Super Eagles.<\/p>\n
Speaking to Daily Trust, the former Ajax of Holland winger said: \u201cIt is a good result for the Super Eagles. In such friendly matches, we shouldn\u2019t look so much at the result but the performance of the players.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe result against Brazil is therefore a welcome development because the boys gave a very good account of themselves. They have shown that the glory days will soon be back.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe future is looking good with these youngsters. My happiness is that at least 80% of the present squad is made up of very young players who are going to last long in the Super Eagles.<\/p>\n
\u201cMore of such matches will be good for the young boys. They need more experience which can be attained only through such friendly matches.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey should be given more exposure. The future is indeed bright for the Super Eagles.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
