The idea of the NFF arranging for friendlies for the Super Eagles ahead of the 2018 FIFA World Cup, interests Samson Siasia.


The Super Eagles will be taking on Poland and Serbia on March 23rd and March 27th respectively. They will also be meeting with Congo, England and Czech Republic before the World Cup commences.


“It is a joyful thing for every Nigerian that we have qualified and going to fly our flag in Russia but as we all know, World Cup is all about preparations,” Siasia said.


“The Super Eagles Coach (Gernot Rohr) and the FA need to do everything possible to carry out the World Cup plans. Fine, we have seen partnerships here and there but we need to do so much more.


“Personally, I will commend Nigerian Breweries for coming up to partner with the NFF, because they need something like that to make things easy for them ahead of the World Cup,” he added.


"And for Nigeria Breweries to partner the NFF, it means they believe in the Super Eagles and what Nigeria can do at the World Cup.


"Like I said that World Cup is all about preparations, I am happy to hear that we are playing friendly matches with England, Poland and a few others. These games will definitely help the coaches and the players to prepare well for the World Cup,” Siasia concluded.
