Samson Siasia Invites Christian Pyagbara , Two Others To Dream Team

Dream Team VI coach Samson Siasia has invited three players to beef up his squad ahead of the All -Africa Games in Congo Brazzaville next month.

During the Nigeria U23s get- together taking place in Abuja, the 2008 Beijing Olympics coach is expected to run the rule over Stephen Eze (Sunshine Stars), Lawal Shittu (Giwa FC) and Christian Pyagbara (Sharks FC) in addition to the 31 players that were earlier picked.

Siasia had to invite these three players as some of the players that made his squad list are now training with the Super Eagles while some local clubs have refused to release players that made the roster.

As at Tuesday, Tonbara Tiongoli, Semiu Laidi and Ndifreke Effiong were forced to miss the training session due to injury.

The Nigeria Under 23s are in the so - called Group of Death alongside Egypt and Ghana, who have both won the All-Africa Games men’s football tournament, and Senegal - a rising force in youth football.
