Nigeria’s Super Eagles will take on world number five Portugal in an international friendly at Estádio Municipal de Leiria on June 10.

The last senior meeting between the nations ended in a 4-0 defeat for Nigeria in Lisbon. Cristiano Ronaldo leads the Portuguese squad, while Wilfred Ndidi captains the Super Eagles. Nigeria will be without key forwards Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman, putting extra pressure on Chelle’s attack.
