the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifying match against Kenya which is slated
for the U. J. Esuene Stadium, Calabar, Cross River State on March 23.
General Secretary of the Nigeria Football Federation, Musa Amadu,
confirmed on Tuesday that the domestic league players will begin
camping two weeks before the arrival of the overseas-based
professionals, one week to the crucial game.
"Now that we are the champions of Africa, we know that every team will
prepare much harder whenever they are to play Nigeria. We don't want
to leave ourselves open to any sucker punch. Getting to the top and
staying there requires a lot of hard work," Amadu said.
Super Eagles' Head Coach Stephen Keshi is expected to release the list
of the selected players for the match after a meeting with the NFF
Technical Committee.
