download

After a morale-boosting win over arch-rivals Ghana, the Super Eagles will on Tuesday take on the Eagles of Mali in another friendly with kick-off time fixed at 9pm.

The venue remains the Grande Stade de Marrakesh.

On Friday, interim coach Finidi George led Nigeria to beat Ghana 2-1 in their first friendly in Morocco during this international break.

It was the Super Eagles first win over the Black Stars since 2006.

Ghana denied Nigeria the passage to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar after a 1-1 draw in Abuja two years ago.

Fellow West Africans Mali will be expected to offer the Super Eagles another competitive game Tuesday night.

It will be another chance for Finidi to stake a claim for the Super Eagles top post.

He has hinted he will make changes from the Ghana game.
