The anticipation is high to determine which team, Nigeria or Sweden, will face Mexico in the final. This answer is expected later today after the clash between the two teams. The Aztecs showcased their dominance in the first semi-final, defeating the Argentinians 3-0 in the Cadet World Cup held in the United Arab Emirates.
During the group stage, Nigeria and Sweden had a competitive encounter that ended in a 3-all draw.
The dream of reaching the final is alive for the Africans, as expressed by their captain, Musa Muhammed: “We will bring the Cup home.”
Nigeria remains the sole African representative in contention. Coach Manu Garba made just one change to the lineup that started the match against Uruguay, with Ezeh replacing Idowu in midfield.
Here are the lineups for both teams:
Nigeria: Alampasu, Muhammed, Okon, Idowu, Abubakar, Alfa, Iheanacho, Yahaya, Nwakali, Awoniyi, Bello
Sweden: Mohlin, S. Ramhorn, J. Ramhorn, Sonko, Wahkqvist, Anderson, Berisha, Saletros, Engvall, Halvadzic
