The team touched down this afternoon aboard a Max Airlines for the game scheduled for the Setsoto Stadium at 5 pm.
“@NGSuperEagles We have arrived in Maseru. #SoarSuperEagles #Team9jaStrong #LESNGA,” read a tweet on the Super Eagles twitter handle.
The Eagles are in the driving seat of Group L with three points after defeating the Squirrels of Benin 2-1 at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium on Wednesday. While Lesotho played out a 1-1 draw against Sierra Leone.
Sunday’s match will be played on astro turf which is a concern for head coach, Gernot Rohr for fear of injuries on the part of his players.
