Deniran, Temile Among African XI Stars To Face Nigeria U23s In Friendly On Wednesday

Allnigeriasoccer.com understands the Nigerian U23 National Team will square off against an African select team of Atlanta on Wednesday evening as part of their preparations for the 2016 Olympic Games.

The Samson Siasia-led side were supposed to tackle Honduras today but the game has been called off, and former Super Falcons goalkeeper Judith Chime and ex- Olympic National Team invitee Victor Deniran quickly arranged the game against the African XI.

The friendly match will be staged at Georgia Soccer Park Camp, and is scheduled to kick off at 1700 hours local time, which is 2200 hours in Nigeria.

 Deniran and ex-Golden Eaglets sensation Temile Omonigho will play for the African XI.

The Dream Team VI defeated Charleston Battery 1-0 in their last friendly.
