Watford FC of England striker, Odion Ighalo, has been dropped to the bench as Belgium-based Moses Simon takes his place in Sunday’s (today) international friendly against the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon.
In goal, Wolverhampton Wanderers of England goalie, Carl Ikeme, kept his shirt, while Shehu Abdullahi, Leon Balogun, Efe Ambrose and Elderson Echiejile would provide him cover.
Nigeria’s midfield will be guided by Ogenyi Onazi, John Obi Mikel and Slyvester Igbonu, as the attack would be led by Ahmed Musa, who retains his skipper’s arm band.
Musa will be joined by Emmanuel Emenike and Simon.
The tie kicks off at 7pm Nigerian time.
The Eagles suffered a shockingly two nil loss in the hands of the Democratic Republic of Congo on Thursday.
