International: Super Eagles camp bubbling ahead of Algeria friendly

Nigerian camp in Algeria is already bubbling ahead of next week’s friendly encounter with Algeria in Oran.

Although it is the 23rd ever encounter of both teams since the first encounter in Lagos during the 2nd All Africa Games, the September 27 duel will be just the second time both teams are meeting in a friendly match.

Their first ever friendly match was that of two years ago at Klagenfurt in Austria when the Algerians were still flaming with an unbeaten to 19 and it later stretched to 35 before it was terminated by an unfancied team, Equatorial Guinea at the last Africa Cup of Nations.
