Flying Eagles winger, Jude Sunday says it was important for the Flying Eagles to finish their campaign at the 2023 Africa U-20 Cup of Nations on a winning note.

Ladan Bosso’s side bounced back from the disappointment of missing out on a place in the final by claiming third position at the expense of Tunisia.

The record champions were at their devastating best thrashing the Young Carthage Eagles 4-0 at the Cairo International Stadium.

Sunday scored twice in the victory after he was handed his first start of the competition by Bosso.

It was the third time the Flying Eagles won a bronze medal at the U-20 AFCON.

“We lost the semi-final even though we played better so it was important to win and we thank god for the victory,” Sunday was quoted by CAFonline.

The Flying Eagles will now shift attention to the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup coming up in May in Indonesia

Manchester United legend, Wayne Rooney, has picked the Red Devils defender Luke Shaw as the most improved player in the Premier League following the conclusion of the 2025/26 season.

Speaking on his BBC podcast, Rooney said, “I think, for me, Luke Shaw. I think Luke Shaw has been the most improved player this season.

“I know he is an experienced player now, but I think his level this season has been much better than it has been in recent seasons.

“People might look at Kobbie Mainoo but I don’t think he’s improved. It was just the fact he wasn’t playing under the former manager so it wasn’t good or bad.”

Shaw enjoyed one of his most consistent seasons at Man United and started all of Man United’s Premier League games.
