Argentina Vs Nigeria Friendly : KickOff Time Revealed, Rejected Ukraine & Israel Published: October 26, 2017 Argentina Vs Nigeria Friendly : KickOff Time Revealed, Rejected Ukraine & IsraelThe Argentina Football Association have confirmed the kickoff time for the international friendly between the two-time world champions and Nigeria next month. According to TYC Sports, Argentina will face the Super Eagles at the Arena of FC Krasnodar on Tuesday, November 14, starting from 1300 hours. Assuming the time announced by the Argentina FA is the local time in Argentina, Super Eagles fans will be able to monitor proceedings as from 1700 hours Nigerian time. Before accepting to play Nigeria, the Argentina Football Association had negotiated an international friendly with Ukraine and they also received a proposal from Israel. Manager Jorge Sampaoli has called up 22 stars for the friendlies against Russia and Nigeria, including Lionel Messi, Sergio Aguero, Paulo Dybala, Javier Mascherano and Angel Di María. Eight players have been placed on a standby list : Guido Pizarro (Sevilla), Emanuel Mammana (Zenit), Giovanni Lo Celso (PSG), Emanuel Lanzini (West Ham), Gerónimo Rulli (Real Sociedad) and Joaquín Correa (Sevilla) and Emiliano Insúa (Stuttgart). Nigeria have already qualified for next summer's showpiece with a game to spare, after four wins and a draw in Group B of the African qualifiers. Ifeanyi Emmanuel --AllNigeriaSoccer |

Real Madrid star stabs team-mate in the back by urging president Florentino Perez to move for Manchester United transfer target ![]() Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric has been having chats with club president Florentino Perez that could affect Manchester United’s transfer plans in the near future. The Croatia international is reportedly unhappy with the form of current Los Blancos striker Karim Benzema and has requested a raid on his old club Tottenham for Harry Kane, according to Don Balon. The England striker has been in lethal form this season, netting 13 goals in 12 games for Spurs in all competitions to spark talk of a big move away from north London. The Sun claim Manchester United could be ready to spend as much as £170million on Kane next summer, but Modric hopes Real can bring him in as an upgrade on Benzema. The France international has just two goals in all competitions this term, with Diario Gol recently claiming he could even be offered to Tottenham as part of any deal for Kane. Either way, things don’t look great for Benzema’s future at the Bernabeu right now, but United won’t be happy either if it means they miss out on the chance to land Kane for themselves. more @ http://emmanuel17.com/2017/10/real-madrid-star-stabs-team-mate-in-the-back-by-urging-president-florentino-perez-to-move-for-manchester-united-transfer-target/ |

Mickael2:Then I will have Iheanacho start ahead of Etebo, he also plays with those styles that you attributed to Etebo, and considering his better conversion rates, he should get the nod to play behind Ighalo if the coach buys your idea. World cup is fast approaching, hence there isn't much room for many experiments except there are many friendlies to do that. All these blames for players failures to perform on other players should stop. We can always point out to reasons why a player may have performed below expectations, players should know that they have make the most out of and justify any opportunity that comes their way irrespective of “unfavorable conditions." An example was how Suarez almost single-handedly won the league for Liverpool despite not being surrounded with world class players to make things easy for him. If Ezenwa didn't impress when opportunity came, we know what may happened to him, and despite how weak the them looked in the first 25mins against Cameroon he didn't allow that to affect him as he saved his team from dangerous ariel balls. The national team is different from club football, hence the coach may not have much opportunities to re-try a failed tactic. Mikel has so far impressed in that role. He did well against Algeria, Zambia and Cameroon, and if there is anyone that may challenge him for that spot, it should be Iwobi. |

Actually, I can give you 10 names. Please don't tell me that you'll rate Harry Kane above the likes of Sergio Aguero, Griezeman, Lewandowski, Gabriel Jesus, Edison Cavani, Diego Costa, Kylian Mbappe, etc. Note, I specifically left out Messi, Cristiano, Neymar etc. Listen, I give Mauricio Pochettinno a great deal of credit because the fact is: Harry Kane is playing way above his potential. Kane would be a failure if he leaves Spurs or if Poch leaves. Mark my word! O pari Xzbit91: |

I haven't watched Aluko since his club got demoted to the Championship. but I gotta admit that he impressed me on a few occasions he was invited to SE camp. Not sure if I would make him my playmaker though. He strikes me as more of a worker than a creator. Joel Obi is class, but he's rarely healthy. O pari komekn: |

Icon4s:But even you know that friendlies like against the Argies will test our mettle in ways that none of the sides we played during the qualifiers has done because of the quality of players Argentina has and Sampaoli the coach who would definitely want to consolidate on the win early this month after a cranky start. And then also European top teams will test us too in their own unique ways. Imagine a friendly with a German side full of quality and Loew, a coach who is reputed to have five or so tactical options for matches. |

MetalJigsaw:On the contrary I am very confident we will beat this Argentinian side based on the way our team is set up to play. The current Super Eagles have a weakness, LONG BALLS!!. Tanzania, South Africa and Zambia (second leg) adopted long ball tactics and we struggled. In the case of South Africa we lost. Any team that passes the ball from the back to the midfield on the attack we do well against because we have one of the most devastating counter attacks in world football. Argentina will come out and play and will be beaten. |

safarigirl:Hahahaha hahahaha but I read your exchange with one guy on the Algerian match thread where you said any Nigerian whether he's old or young (you in fact mentioned Defoe) should have the opportunity and I was like is this safarigirl or a clone. Truly if Martins comes things will spoil. Those guys will trigger something that will jeopardise team spirit. I don't want to hear Ma not to talk of Tins. Of the old lot only Enyeama should be recalled and even that is now looking unlikely cos it seems Enyeama has enemies in that NFF. I am afraid ooo. |
