The national under-17 male football team on Thursday thrashed Bayern Munich Academy of Abuja 5-1 in a friendly match.
The match was part of the Golden Eaglets’ preparations for the 2021 Under-17 Africa Cup of Nations slated for Morocco in March.
Eaglets were recently drawn in Group B with Tanzania, Algeria and Congo for the fiesta scheduled for March 13 to March 31.
In the friendly match at the River plate football ground in Abuja, the Eaglets who have been in camp since January outclassed their opponents with a scintillating display.
The first half of the match started on a cautious note with both sides unable to convert their goalscoring chances.

Manchester United are so desperate to land Declan Rice this summer and will offer West Ham United three players, according to 90min.
It is understood that the three players Man United will offer to force the deal are: Jesse Lingard, Nemanja Matic and Phil Jones.
Man United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, has long been an admirer of Rice, who was previously being touted at around £80m.
However, due to the financial implications of the COVID-19 pandemic, that amount is said to have dropped to £50million.
Man United valued Lingard, Matic and Jones at a combined £30million. That would mean the Red Devils only having to pay around £20million to get Rice.
