Five-time champions, the Golden Eaglets, have been defeated in their final group game 2-1 to Australia at the ongoing FIFA U-17 world cup in Brazil.
The Eaglets still finished top of group B after Ecuador defeated Hungary 3-2
However, the Golden Eaglets will have to improve on their finishing in the knockout stage as they failed to be clinical in front of goal in a game where they registered 34 shots in total.
Group B winners Nigeria next take on the third-best team in one of Group A, C or D in the Round of 16 on Nov. 5.
