Thirteen of the players invited for the Super Eagles showdown with the Black Stars landed in Abuja on Monday ahead of the team's first training session.

Super Eagles captain Ahmed Musa has showed up in camp and joining him are his former Leicester City teammate Kelechi Iheanacho, Watford midfielder Oghenekaro Etebo, Omonia Nicosia duo Andullahi Shehu and Francis Uzoho, and Nantes winger Moses Simon.

The remaining players in camp are Leon Balogun, William Troost-Ekong, Ola Aina, Daniel Akpeyi, Semi Ajayi, Odion Ighalo and Frank Onyeka.

The Super Eagles' players and officials are scheduled to fly out to Ghana on a chartered flight on Wednesday, March 23.

The Ghana Football Association have yet to confirm the players invited for the World Cup playoff as part of their strategy to surprise the Super Eagles but the fact is that almost every football loving Nigerian can name the opponents' ideal starting lineup.
