Yes, we lost. But we played well. More than I expected, given the fact that we played against one of the strongest teams in Europe.

Atletico are the current Europa League champions and I think a 2-3 scoreline is not bad. We fielded a third string Super Eagles team but they managed to hold their own.

One player that made a strong case for himself as to why he isn't in the provisional squad for the Russia 2018 Mundial is Usman Muhammed. He scored a sublime goal after sending two Atletico defenders to the cleaners.

That was nothing short of a stroke of genius. A kind of goal only Lionel Messi is capable of scoring(or the kind of goal scored by the great Jay-Jay back in the day during his time in the Bundesliga). Where has this Usman been all this while?

The Nwakali brothers, Chidi and Kelechi, held their own too. Brilliant lads. Good on the ball.

Generally, it was a good showing. Shout out to GoTv for this challenge.

Yea, we tried 2-3 is a decent scoreline.
