Nigeria’s U-17 team, Golden Eaglets would play their second and last warm up match before heading to Santiago for the 16th edition of the FIFA U-17 World Cup against the U-20 side of Argentine top side, Racing Club de Avellaneda on Monday at the club’s central training pitch at Tita Mattiussi located in Greater Buenos Aires.
The match which organizers said would kick off at 10am Argentine time (exactly 1:00pmNigerian time), is another opportunity for the coach Emmanuel Amuneke-led Eaglets to test their readiness to defend the trophy won by Nigeria for a record fourth time two years ago in the UAE. The Golden Eaglets last Wednesday beat their Argentinean counterparts 2-1 at the AFA Training Centre.
Meanwhile, Amuneke has yet reiterated that the best players have been picked to represent Nigeria at FIFA U-17 World Cup which kicks off this weekend with the Golden Eaglets playing their first match against the USA on October 17 at Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos in Santiago.
