Golden Eaglets' Decline: Manu Garba's Coaching Under Scrutiny

Nigeria's Golden Eaglets, under coach Manu Garba, failed to qualify for the World Championship for the second time in a row. The team's decline in fortunes was evident as they also missed out on the AFCON, losing to Burkina Faso.

The failure to qualify for major tournaments has raised concerns about the team's performance. Despite topping their group in the 2019 FIFA World Cup, the Eaglets were eliminated in the Round of 16.

The team's absence in the 2023 World Championship and AFCON highlighted the need for improvement. The Nigeria Football Federation's decision to bring back Manu Garba after previous failures has sparked debate about coaching strategies and team development.
