BEVERLY HILLS, September 04, (THEWILL) – Former Super Eagles player, Garba Lawal, has reacted to the two friendly games lined up for the Super Eagles.
THEWILL had earlier reported that the NFF had lined up the games against Tunisia and Côte d’Ivoire, which will be played in Austria, to prepare the Eagles for the African Nations Cup and World Cup qualifiers.
Reacting to this development, Lawal speaking with www.brila.net stated that the friendly is necessary for the development of the Super Eagles.
Lawal said: “Fantastic, I think for now there is no football for long you know, the pandemic make things so difficult for countries to play football exceptions of the Europeans who will be sooner playing their Nations league, I think it’s fantastic to see the Africans back in playing football, the South Africans have started their league already so, I think it’s a good development.”
THEWILL reports that Nigeria will play Cote d’Ivoire on the 9th of October and Tunisian on the 17th of October.
