Scotland's Under-20 coach, Archie Gemmill has described the Flying Eagles as a team with a lot of talent and robust play.
Gemmill said this much after Scotland were thrashed 2-0 by the Nigerians in their second Group F match at the ongoing FIFA Under-20 World Cup taking place in the north American state of Canada. "Nigeria has a good team with a lot of talent. I don't blame the goalkeeper (for the second goal). It's just one of those things, and their player wasn't closed down quickly enough", said Gemmill, who added that the Nigerians were fitter that his wards on the turf. "I don't know how many games Nigeria have played, but they may have been a little bit more match fit than us since we haven't had an awful lot of football in the last six weeks", said the coach. Also speakiing, San Lynch, a Scotland's striker, said "I thought we created the better chances and should have gotten something out of the game. It will be tough to qualify now, but we'll prepare like we usually do, train hard and work on the things we didn't do very well tonight." Quote this article on your site | Print | E-mail
