Flying Eagles head coach Aliyu Zubairu said his team is still not yet at the level he wanted, Newspot 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.
