Nigeria U17 will face the Argentina U17 side in a friendly game billed for the Argentina Football Association (AFA) Training Centre in Ezeiza, Buenos Aires on Tuesday.
The Golden Eaglets are currently in the south American country to fine tune strategies for their title defence at the 2015 Fifa U17 World Cup billed for Chile later this month.
Ameuneke’s ward are pooled in Group A alongside Chile, Croatia and the United States of America while the Albicelestes will slug it out against Australia, Mexico and Germany in Group C.
Coach Amuneke praised the intensity of the training and demanded further commitment from the players, adding that much was being expected from the team in Chile.
"I'm happy with the intensity of the training but we can get better," said Amuneke.
“We have to keep working hard in the coming days because we have few days before our first match at the World Cup.”
Nigeria begin their world title defence against the United States of America on October 17 at the Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos, Santiago.
