The delegation of senior national team of Seychelles, known as Pirates has landed in Nigeria for Friday’s 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match against the Super Eagles.
Group leaders, Super Eagles had already secured their place in the finals and would be in the pot for the draw on Friday, 12th April at CAF’s headquarters in Cairo, while the Pirates were long eliminated and had only come to fulfill the fixture.
A 29-man delegation arrived Abuja aboard an Ethiopian Airline yesterday and would be flown to Asaba this morning.
The Eagles were also at the same time preparing for a friendly game against the Pharaohs of Egypt, who are seven-time champions and record winners of the continent’s most prestigious football diadem. This match comes up on Tuesday next week, also at the Stephen Keshi Stadium, Asaba.
