Flying Eagles head coach Aliyu Zubairu said his team is still not yet at the level he wanted, Urban Express News Sport reports.
Zubairu’s side successfully defended their crown at the WAFU B U-20 Championship in Lome, Togo, last month.
They defeated eternal rivals, Ghana 2-1 in the final.
The Flying Eagles also secured a place at the 2025 Africa U-20 Cup of Nations.
Despite their success in Lome, the gaffer said his team is still a work of progress.
“I’m somewhat dissatisfied with our defence; we were conceding goals consistently. This vulnerability cannot be overlooked on a larger stage,” he made this statement during a meeting with members of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria, SWAN, Kwara State Chapter, in Ilorin on Monday.
