Photos: Super Eagles Arrive Sierra Leone For AFCON Qualifier Return Leg

 

 

 

Nigeria’s Super Eagles have arrived in Freetown for the second-leg of their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier match against Sierra Leone.

The Nigerian team will take on the Leone Stars on Tuesday following a disappointing 4-4 draw at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin City, the Edo State capital.

Recall that in the first-leg match played on Friday last week, the Super Eagles had taken the lead by four goals to nil barely 30 minutes after kick-off, only for Sierra Leone to stage a dramatic comeback to share points with the Nigerian team

.

President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Amaju Pinnick, has challenged the Eagles to go beyond claiming all points in Freetown and make sure they win by a margin not less than four goals. He also asked them to ensure they do not concede any goal from the host team when they meet on Tuesday.
