U-20 World Cup: Flying Eagles set up training camp in Germany

Nigeria’s U-20 national team, the Flying Eagles, have finally arrived Germany for a training camp ahead of next month’s World Cup in Turkey.
The team arrived Frankfurt international Airport on Tuesday at 5am local time, which is 4am Nigerian time, after a flight of over five hours from the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja.
A second batch of players is expected later this week to join the squad after they would have received their entry visas.
The team then took a two-hour bus ride from Frankfurt to the little village of Elfershausen, where they have
booked in to the four-star Ullrich Hotel.
The team trained for an hour and a half later in the evening at the home ground of local side, 1.FC 1928 Elfershausen, which is a walking distance from their hotel.
They are billed to play their first test game on Wednesday evening.
The Flying Eagles are set to feature in the Toulon Football Tournament In France at the end of this month as part of their build-up to the U-20 World Cup in Turkey.
They are drawn alongside Portugal, South Korea and debutants Cuba in the first round of the World Cup.
