Less Than 6,000 Fans To Watch Nigeria-Serbia Friendly, Cheapest Seat N9,000

The Nigeria Football Federation have confirmed that the Super Eagles will take on the Serbian national team in a pre-World Cup friendly at the Hive Stadium on March 27.

The 5,176 capacity stadium in Canons Park hosted the friendly between Nigeria and Senegal on March 23, 2017, and a proposed friendly against Burkina Faso four days later was cancelled.

The tickets for the game will cost at least £18 (approximately N9,000.00) for adults and £10 (N5,000.00) for juniors.

The kick-off time for the friendly against Serbia has been confirmed at 2000 hours.

Nemanja Matić (Manchester United), Dušan Tadić (Southampton), Luka Milivojević (Crystal Palace) and Aleksandar Mitrović (Newcastle) are the English-based players expected to be called up to the Serbian team for the friendly against Nigeria.

Ahead of the Super Eagles trip to Russia in June, the Nigerian Federation have also lined up friendlies against Poland, Democratic Republic of Congo, England and Czech Republic.
