The Golden Eaglets of Nigeria's blistering start to the Chile 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup continued on Wednesday with a 5 - 1 thrashing of host country Chile.
The Nigerian team had started the tournament on a bright note with a 2 - 0 victory over the USA on Saturday.
In Wednesday's match played at the Estadio Sausalito Vina Del Mar, the eaglets got their first goal just after 25 seconds through man of the match Samuel Chukwueze.
Team captain Kelechi Nwakali made it 2-0 in the 17th minute from the penalty spot.
Additional goals from Chukwueze in the 61st minute and Victor Osimhen in the 66th and 86th minutes completed the rout.
The Chileans got their consolation goal in the 81st minute through Marcello Allende.
The Golden Eaglets who sit atop Group A with 6 points from two matches are already through to the second round but will play their last group match against Croatia on Friday.
