“Train hard for years so you can become an
overnight success.”
One of the most interesting teams at the Red
Bull Neymar Jrs Five which was concluded in April, was Holy Sons. Their
overnight success embodied what we all hope will happen to us. Satisfying
victory after trying so hard.
Before the Red Bull Neymar Jrs Five tournament
in 2022, Holy Sons had competed in previous editions and lost.
The team which is made up of six, is based in
Lagos, got as far as the quarter finals in 2019 and 2021. Holy Sons, started
off with the name 96 Champions defeated 4 teams before qualifying for the
National finals.
Their previous experience shone as they played
with skill, and dominated the National finals.
At the final match, they faced off against an
equally skilled team. Kaizer FC.
Kaizer FC was an equally skilled team who had
a high stake in this tournament.
Holy sons however, proved more at an advantage
given their years of experience and dominated from the first whistle to the end.
They outplayed Kaizer FC to win with a total score of 5 goals to none.

They dominated from the first whistle to the
end, outplaying Kaizer FC to win with a total score of 5 goals to none.
Speaking on their victory they said:
Our perseverance and consistency has helped
us to where we are at the moment.
All members of holy sons are aspiring
professional players who want to play football at the biggest level in Europe
and around the world.
Clinching this ticket to represent Nigeria
in Qatar is a steppingstone for us. By God’s grace we will be winners in Qatar.
Following their victory and new status as
Nigeria’s national champions, they will now get the chance to face the global
team of Neymar Jr in Quatar.
