After missing out in London four years ago, Nigeria’s under 23 men’s football team will once again compete at the 2016 Olympics which commences on Friday in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.

Known as the Dream Team VI, Nigeria is in Group B alongside Colombia, Japan and Sweden, as they aim to go one better than the silver medal they won at the 2008 Beijing Olympic games and recreate history like in 1996 when they became the first African country to win a football GOLD.
