Pepsi Football Academy‘s Consultant, Iain Nelson, has said that new soccer talents will emerge from all the teams participating in the on-going Pepsi Eight-Nation international tournament.
The championship entered its third day on Tuesday with two Pepsi Football Academy teams filing out against their respective opponents in what were generally considered explosive fixtures.
Speaking after the clash between LAFAD Academy of Cote d‘Ivoire and Dragon International of Republic Benin which ended 2-1 in favour of the former, Nelson said it was fulfilling watching West African youth footballers display their talents on the field of play.
He said, ”It is gratifying to note that new football talents will eventually be discovered from all the countries participating because the standard of play has been very high.
”Pepsi as a brand draws a lot of fulfilment from this and even the players themselves will forever be happy for having the opportunity to use this platform to unleash their talents.”
The PFA consultant described the tournament as a worthy investment in line with the corporate responsibility of the 7Up Bottling Company which is driven by the desire to give something back to the society.
