Nigeria kicked off their 2019 U20 World Cup campaign with a rampant 4-0 Group D win over a lackluster Qatar side in Tychy.
Maxwell Effiom and Okechukwu Offia struck first-half goals to open their international accounts at Tychy Stadium, with Tom Dele-Bashiru and Aliu Salawudeen adding two more goals to silence the Asians.
Effiom scored the opener after 12minutes, and it was the creativity and industry of captain Ikouwem Utin that picked apart Qatar’s tightly stitched seams.
