Mexico thrashed a team of NPFL stars 4-0 early today in a friendly played before a big crowd at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum in the USA.
Mexico, ranked 11th in the world by FIFA, proved their superiority over the Nigerian team made up of players from the local league with two quick goals in the first four minutes.
They sealed an easy win in the second half with goals in the 52nd and 78th minutes as H. Herrea grabbed a brace.
The play of the NPFL stars captained by Enyimba winger Anayo Iwuala was disjointed and lacked self-belief.

Stanley Nwabili – Imo Obot, Olisa Ndah, Adekunle Adeleke, Tope Olusesi – Anthony Shimaga, Seth Mayi – Anayo Iwuala (captain), Uche Onwuasoanya, Ibrahim Sunusi – Atshimene Charles
