NFF To Get $2m Advance FIFA Payment For Super Eagles’ World Cup Preparations The Nigeria Football Federation will receive $2m from the Federation of International Football Associations (FIFA) towards the Super Eagles preparations for the 2018 World Cup in Russia, Completesportsnigeria.com reports. The payment will be an advance from the total prize money due to the NFF for Super Eagles participation at the mundial. The four other African representatives, Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco and Senegal will also benefit from the gesture. According to a report on the CAF official website, the decision comes on the heels of negotiations initiated by the president of the continent’s soccer govering body Ahmad Ahmad with the FIFA administration, leading to the exceptional agreement granted on 12 April, 2018. It follows a decision by the CAF Emergency Committee held on 1 December 2017, and ratified by the CAF Executive Committee on 10 January 2018, to provide exceptional financial support to the five African representatives towards their preparations for the impending tournament in Russia. “This agreement, for an advance on the financial allocation by FIFA, aims to allow representatives in World Cups to have a harmonious preparation and to settle beforehand the question of bonuses due the players, which in the previous editions of the competitions has led to situations that affected badly the image of African football, with a considerable impact on team performances,” Ahmad stated. The five teams have thus been directed to contact FIFA. The Super Eagles are in Group D along with two-time world champions Argentina, debutants Iceland and 1998 semi-finalists Croatia.

Dalung: Abuja Remains First Choice To Host Super Eagles Vs Congo Friendly By Richard Jideaka, Abuja Nigeria’s Minister of Youth and Sports, Solomon Dalung, has insisted that the international friendly match between the Super Eagles and Congo DR in May can only be played outside Abuja if National Stadium is not ready, Completesportsnigeria.com reports. President of Nigeria Football Federation Amaju Pinnick had only last week declared that the match will take place at the Adokiye Amasimaka Stadium in Port Harcourt and went ahead to inspect the stadium with coach Gernot Rohr. But speaking with media after the opening ceremony of grassroots sports festival in Abuja on Monday, Dalung said the idea to play the match in Abuja was to bid the team farewell to the World Cup in Russia and probably convince President Muhammadu Buhari to attend. “We are looking at Port Harcourt if by then we are unable to complete work at the stadium here in Abuja,” Dalung said. “As you can see here work has gone far. Port Harcourt remains our Plan B to host the farewell game. The ides is for the players to mop up the blessings and prayers of Nigerians. “As for the team’s preparation, we are comfortable with the plans and government is also comfortable with the fund we requested and I believe all things being equal, we shall get deserved response as at when due.” The Super Eagles, who will face Argentina, Croatia and Iceland at the Russia 2018 World Cup, will play friendly matches with Czech Republic and England after the DR Congo friendly.

You mean only fans that went to uyo supported the SE? What about those who couldn't go that far but would have attended every match if they were played in their own state? Let others have a feel too haba, it's nothing serious. Let's see if those who went to the stadium in Uyo to watch actually did so out of support and not because most of the time the stadium was thrown open or subsidized. Abuja or PH is quite okay for the friendly. tbaba1234: 4 Likes 1 Share |

His height is a bonafide menace for any defence aerially and he is strong on the ball too for someone so tall. The second goal showed his fine ability to hold off pressure and marking and still get off a shot... his first goal was scored with his shoulder. Funny. That height is huge. A fine prospect and he is 25 now (will be 26 in May) tbaba1234: 2 Likes |

Super Eagles backroom staff apply for visa for Austria World Cup camp The Super Eagles backroom staff led by chief coach Salisu Yusuf today applied for Schengen visas in Abuja ahead of the team’s final training camp in Austria leading up to the World Cup. Other officials who applied for the visa include team administrator Dayo Enebi, assistant coach Imama Amapakabo as well as goalkeeper trainer Alloy Agu. The Eagles will head to Austria after their high-profile World Cup warm-up against England at Wembley on June 2. They will take on Czech Republic, who did not qualify for Russia 2018, on June 6 in their final friendly before the World Cup.

This Chris Giwa man had a plan. He waited until the world cup some barely some days to go before he returned back to Supreme court to cause havoc. If Nigeria is banned from going to Russia, make e just go exile. |

BascoVanVeli:Etebo gets a shout as well.I think we are loaded in the DM position more than any other. Although, sentiments aside, Onazi is not fit to hold down that position. He looks totally out of shape and has lost about 2 yards of pace.He doesn't look a serious player to me these days. Sad but true. I will rather go to war with Shehu and Etebo if Ndidi is absent. Onazi is an accident waiting to happen. In my opinion |
