Nigeria vs Argentina:Nigeria to Honour Re-match July 27, 2011


Super Eagles Coach Samson Siasia has confirmed that the Senior National Team will honour the international friendly games against the Albiceleste of Argentina.

The confirmation means that the Nigeria Football Federation will not have to cough out $1 million as compensation to the game organisers in the event of its team failing to appear.


Coach Siasia, however, explained that the team will leave Antananarivo immediately after their 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying game against Madagascar for Dhaka.

Nigeria's Super Eagles are expected to face their Madagascar counterparts in a 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying on September 4.

The team will then confront Argentina two days later in what has been termed a re-match of an earlier international friendly on June 1 in Abuja where Nigeria defeated Argentina by 4-1
