The Super Eagles of Nigeria will soon be engaging the Stallion of Burkina Faso in a friendly match on 15 September, 2013 in Kaduna.

ECOAFRICA gathered that the authenticity of the friendly match would be justified the moment it is confirmed by the NNF, who are on the verge of sealing the deal and that the Kaduna State government is expected to finance the friendly match

However the home base Eagles was said to have played the first leg of their Africa Nations Championships qualifying match against Ivory Coast at the Ahmadu Bello Stadium in Kaduna and ended 4-1which consequently qualifies them for the tournament proper.
