The coach of the Nigeria U20 team Paul Aigbogun has released the starting line-up for today’s second leg clash against Mauritania in the final round of qualifiers for the African Youth Championship.
Nigeria were forced to a 1-1 draw by host Mauritania last week and a scoreless draw will be good enough for them to qualify but it appears the Nigerian team is focused on winning based on his line up.
Afeez Aremu who was a late inclusion in the team was handed a start with Nazifi Yahaya and Aniekeme Okon bringing to three the number of changes made to the starting line up from the squad that played against Mauritania last week.
