Unity Cup: Chelle Commends NPFL Debutants, Demands More After 2-0 Win
Nigeria opened their Unity Cup defence with a 2-0 win over Zimbabwe, thanks to a brace from Femi Azeez. Coach Eric Chelle fielded an experimental side mixing home-based NPFL stars with European-based players. Chelle praised the newcomers for their attitude and fight but warned they must keep improving if they want to secure a permanent spot in the Super Eagles squad. He reminded them that this was a friendly and the real tests lie ahead. Despite some mistakes under pressure, the coach was encouraged by solid displays from NPFL defenders Oputa and Igboke, as well as positive impacts from substitutes Tosin Oyedokun and Aderemi Adeoye.
