Nigeria’s Super Eagles to Play Against Argentina in US in a Friendly Game
Nigeria’s Super Eagles will face Argentina during the March international break in the US.
Nigeria currently placed 28th in the latest FIFA national team rankings will face a familiar foe for the first time since their AFCON 2023 final loss to Ivory Coast.
Lionel Messi’s Argentina which emerged winners of the 2022 FIFA World Cup hosted in Qatar, currently occupy the number one position in FIFA’s latest national team rankings.
The clash between both sides was confirmed when the official account of the Argentine football association posted the details of the game on their social media handle.
The game was previously scheduled to be played in China, but the fans weren’t too pleased with the decision after Lionel Messi’s recent escapades with inter Miami.
