The Nigeria Football
Federation and its Official FIFA Match Agent, Jairo Pachon of Eurodata Sport
have further confirmed details for the two international friendly matches the
Super Eagles will play against Senegal and Burkina Faso in London later this
month.
Currently on a five –match
winning streak, since losing 0-1 to African vice champions Egypt in a 2017 Cup
of Nations qualifying match in Alexandria a year ago, the Super Eagles are
ranked 41st in the world, 10 places below Senegal’s Teranga Lions and three
places below the Etalons of Burkina Faso.
“We believe that the two
teams, Senegal and Burkina Faso, who also participated at this year’s Africa
Cup of Nations finals in Gabon, will provide the Super Eagles with quality
preparation for the remaining matches of the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifying
series, and the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign starting in
June,” said a statement by NFF and Eurodata Sport.
Both games will take place
at The Hive, Barnet FC home ground, and will kick off at 8pm. Nigeria and
Senegal take the pitch on Thursday, 23rd March and it will be the turn of
Nigeria and Burkina Faso on Monday, 27th March.
