Nigeria’s U-20 boys, Flying Eagles, are now on a short break following their two-match tour of Cote d’Ivoire last week.

Players and officials were given nine days off as they arrived from Abidjan, with the team to regroup in Abuja on Monday, March 10.

Aliyu Zubairu’s charges will contend with Egypt, South Africa and Morocco in group B of this year’s Africa U20 Cup of Nations, taking place in Cote d’Ivoire 26th April – 18th May, with the two top-placed teams in the pool guaranteed spots in the quarter finals.
