stars in Europe - Uche not angry at Nigeria World Cup snub

The Villarreal striker was not picked by Keshi, despite scoring 12 goals in the Spanish top flight this season. Uche has not played for his country since they won the Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa last year. The 30-year-old insists, however, that he holds no grudges against Keshi. "Of course as a professional footballer you'd love to represent your country, but I have never had bad words towards the national coach," Uche is widely regarded as one of Nigeria's most reliable strikers at international level and is one of his nation's all-time top scorers, with 18 goals in 45 appearances, behind Rashidi Yekini, Segun Odegbami and Yakubu Aiyegbeni.

Mali vs Honduras 3:0


Mali moved into the last 16 of the Fifa Under 17 World Cup in Chile with a 3:0 win over Honduras on Saturday.

The result put the African champions top of group D, a point ahead of Ecuador.

The defeat left Honduras without a single point as they bowed out of the tournament.

Mali secured the victory thanks to goals from Amadou Haidara, Abdoul Dante and Aly Malle.

Haidara put Mali ahead early in the game with a goal in the 7th minute.

Captain Abdoul Dante added a second 11 minutes before the break, with Malle making sure of the victory with a goal in the 56th minute.

After the match, the Mali coach, Baye Ba, said he was happy with the result.

"This is a long journey that began a while ago in the African qualifying and now we have finished in the first position in our group," Ba told Fifa.  

"Mali finished in third position in U-20 finals that took place some months ago in New Zealand and this is our goal too: be in the four best teams of this tournament," Ba added.
