There is a massive conspiracy against the Golden Eaglets of Nigeria at the WAFU B U17 tournament, according to the Eaglet media officer.
The Eaglets arrived in Lome, Togo earlier than their first opponents the Baby Elephants of Ivory Coast but their mandatory MRI tests were scheduled for a later time.
Their Ivory Coast counterpart had their tests immediately but the Nigerian boys were scheduled for later, of which 12 boys would have their tests at night and the other 13 at 7am on the morning of the match.
