March 24, (THEWILL) – The Super Eagles are set to take on the Djurtus of Guinea-Bissau in a highly anticipated match at the MKO Abiola Stadium, Abuja, on Friday.
After a strong start to the qualification race for the Cote d’Ivoire 2024 African Cup of Nations, Nigeria is hoping to extend their lead with a win over their opponents. The team secured a 2-1 victory over Sierra Leone and a 10-0 win against Sao Tome, with Napoli striker, Victor Osimhen, scoring four goals in the latter.
Coach Jose Peseiro is set to rely on Osimhen’s scoring prowess once again, as the team hopes to secure a victory against Guinea-Bissau. The striker has been in great form for Napoli this season, and Nigerians will be hoping he can replicate his success with the national side. Guinea-Bissau, who have qualified for the Africa Cup of Nations three times, are also hoping to cause an upset and qualify for the final stage of the competition.
The match promises to be an exciting one, with both teams looking to secure a win and move closer to the tournament. Super Eagles players have promised to teach Guinea-Bissau some ‘bitter lessons’ on the field, while the Wild Dogs are determined to cause an upset.
MTN Nigeria, the official telecommunications partner of the Super Eagles, will be leading the way in supporting the team, and the game will be broadcast to Nigerian audiences on AIT, DStv, GOtv, and StarTimes.
