Corsican Association Offers Children Free Tickets To Watch & Welcome Super Eagles Stars
Published: May 25, 2017
The Corsica Federation, Ligue Corse de Football, have offered free tickets to children up to twelve years old living in the Island to watch Friday's friendly between Corsica and Nigeria.
The Squadra Corsa association presided by Dédé Discala says he wants to give an opportunity to the children and their companion to see the big names on the Nigerian team, including Manchester City's Kelechi Iheanacho and Leicester City striker Ahmed Musa.
''We want them to share this moment and that it remains a beautiful memory for them," Dédé Discala was quoted as saying by Corse Matin.
"Around the flags of Corsica and Nigeria, it seemed interesting to us to send the message of a welcoming island with children , social categories and very different origins.
''That is what it is to live together and it is very important for us.''
The children will welcome the two national teams to the pitch before joining the spectators to watch the game, which begins at 2000 hours.
