Benin won’t last long at the 2025 UFOA B U17 Cup taking place in Côte d’Ivoire. The Cheetahs are out of the tournament after two outings in the group stage. Beaten by Burkina Faso on the opening day, the Beninese were heavily defeated by Nigeria on Wednesday

After a match dominated by the Golden Eagles, the young Cheetahs collapsed to a 4-1 scoreline. A result that hastens their exit from the competition. Quite the opposite for Nigeria, who will fight for first place in the group with Burkina Faso.
