tighten, before we can say that the match is sealed, ”NFF General Secretary, Dr. Mohammed Sanusi, told thenff.com

Football Federation that they have accepted to play
the Super Eagles.”

how have the mighty fallen. we should play friendly matches with countries ranked higher than us but because our football is becoming a joke, we have to settle for Niger. I prefer we play with better countries that'll expose our loopholes so that we can go back to the drawing board and make necessary corrections.
