Kayode in the mood for mischief (FIFA.com) Friday 12 August 2011
Olarenwaju Kayode has good reason to forget the FIFA U-17 World Cup Nigeria 2009. The Flying Eagles striker failed to score in six games for the host nation, who eventually fell to Switzerland in the final.
“Don’t talk to me about our failure in Nigeria,” he told FIFA.com when asked to recall his first taste of international competition. “That tournament was a nightmare for me. I was totally lacking in confidence and focus.”
Two years is a long time in football, however, and having since graduated to the Nigeria U-20 team, Kayode is enjoying happier times at the FIFA U-20 World Cup Colombia 2011, where he and his team-mates have just won through to the quarter-finals. His confidence fully restored, the ASEC Mimosas front man is in the groove, scoring three goals as the Nigerians made regal progress through the group phase.
Dedicating this goalscoring run to his colleagues and to coach John Obuh, Kayode had this to say: “I’m back in the limelight thanks to the work of the team and my coach, who has always believed in my ability as a goalscorer. It’s never easy to start off a competition like this on the right foot but the coach has confidence in me.”
We learned a lot from that defeat (Nigeria 2009 Final). We’ve changed the way we organise ourselves now, and we get together every day to go over our mistakes and improve as a team.

The striker is not the only veteran of Nigeria 2009 to reappear with the Flying Eagles at Colombia 2011. No fewer than eight members of the U-20 squad were on duty on home soil two years ago, when Obuh was also the man in charge.
“It was so frustrating to lose that final at home, although, at the same time, we also learned a lot from that defeat,” added Kayode. “We’ve changed the way we organise ourselves now, and we get together every day to go over our mistakes and improve as a team.”
Aside from that attention to detail, there is one other possible explanation for the upturn in Kayode’s fortunes: a change in shirt numbers, the front man having swapped his No10 jersey for Abdul Ajagun’s No9.
“I wanted to give my old number to Ajagun because nine is my favourite number,” he said, explaining the switch. “It’s the number my hero Obafami Martins wears. The No10 brought me bad luck in Nigeria, but the No9 has not let me down here.”
That last comment is something of an understatement. Opening his Colombian account against Guatemala, he was on the mark again in the match with Croatia and made it three goals in three games against Saudi Arabia.
“After my first goal I ran over to my coach to thank him for keeping faith in me,” he explained. “But against the Saudis I just let myself go and danced like Asamoah Gyan.”

The scoring sequence was broken in the Round-of-16 defeat of England despite a number of chances coming his way. That said, Kayode played an instrumental part in the only goal of the game, scampering into space down the left flank and sending in a measured cross that Edafe Egbedi converted with aplomb.
“I’m happy with my level but I can do even better,” he said, summarising his contribution so far. “I didn’t score against England but I helped set up the winning goal, and I’ll be making the news again in the quarter-finals.”

Beyond the finals Kayode is content to resist a move to Europe, where several of his team-mates are now based, and stay with Côte d’Ivoire club ASEC Mimosas, having moved there from Marvellous FC, the Nigerian outfit where he began his career.
“I’m still young and I need to take my time before moving to Europe,” he said, with a maturity beyond his years. “The most important thing at our age is to keep on progressing. I’ve always played in Africa and I’ve got no intention of rushing into things. I’m progressing slowly but surely and I’ll leave when the time is right.”

For the time being at least, Kayode has his mind firmly set on Sunday’s quarter-final tie against France, with confidence high in the Nigeria camp: “It doesn’t matter who we’re up against, because we know we’ll be there. On a personal level I know I can score against any team, especially in the last eight.”

Koreans march on as Eagles crash
Korea Republic recovered from the loss of an early goal to draw 2-2 against Nigeria in a gripping contest at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban on Tuesday. The result sees the Asians through to the Round of 16 as second-place finishers from Group B behind winners Argentina, and they will meet Group A winners Uruguay in the first stage of knockout play on 26 June in Nelson Mandela Bay. Nigeria, with just one point from their three matches, are heading for home to ponder what might have been.
The Nigerians, in dire need of a win to stay alive, dodged a bullet in only the second minute, when big Danny Shittu's horrid clearance fell to the feet of Park Chu-Young in a dangerous position on the right. The Monaco man’s low cross was picked out well by the sliding Lee Chung-Yong, who sacrificed his body in a collision with Nigerian goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama only to stroke wide of the near post.
After that early scare, Nigeria began to boss the play with their best moments of these finals. Coach Lars Lagerback opted for four attacking players in his starting XI, including Nwankwo Kanu, used for the first time in South Africa. The positive approach paid off, the Super Eagles taking a lead in the 12th minute. Chidi Odiah wriggled his way up the right side with a classy piece of approach work and his low cross was nailed into the corner by Kalu Uchu, who had snuck around his marker. The goal was met with a roar from the home crowd, in need of a boost after their beloved Bafana Bafana were eliminated earlier in the day.
Nigeria continued to push forward as the half wore on, with Chinedu Ogbuke Obasi going close and Kanu and Yakubu Ayegbeni combining well in the advanced positions. The Koreans – who looked so organised in their first match – were getting pushed around and losing their shape as the half wound down. Uche nearly doubled his tally in the 36th minute, only to see his shot from distance slam off the upright to a groan from the crowd. The Asians, against the run of play, took full advantage and drew level with their first shot on goal, Lee Jung-Soo heading home while unmarked at the back post after a free-kick delivered by Ki Sung-Yueng seven minutes from the interval.
The Koreans came out in the second half looking lively. After Lee Young-Pyo tested Enyeama in the opening seconds, danger man Park Chu-Young curled his direct free-kick around the wall and inside the back post from the corner of the penalty area to put the Taeguk Warriors on top 2-1 with just minutes gone. Pockets of lively Korean fans were growing in confidence and voice, singing the anthems that propelled their men to the semi-finals as hosts in 2002, but they were nearly silenced when Yakubu was clear in on goal in the 59th minute. Only a last-ditch tackle from Cho Yong-Hyung kept the big Everton man from a certain equaliser.
'Yak' was at the heart of the action again shortly after, missing a sitter from six yards in the 66th minute, before showing the guts to step up to the spot three minutes later and draw his side level after Obasi was felled in the area. A frenzied half-hour followed, with both sides going agonisingly close to tipping the balance and substitute Obafemi Martins missing a golden breakaway chance. But it was the Korean players celebrating at the final whistle while Nigeria became the third of six African participants to fall at the first hurdle. (fifa.com)
