Nigeria’s Flying Eagles were thrilled to spot kicks as they wind off their preparation for today’s mouth-watering semi final clash against the Black Satellites of Ghana at the ongoing Senegal 2015 Africa U20 Championship.

The team, otherwise known as the national U20 team, finalized its training at the Stade Bima Diop in Central Dakar, under the guide and instructions from the head coach, Manu Garba and his assistant, Ndukka Ugbade and goalkeepers’ trainer, Fancy Uwulu.

All 21 players took part in the exercise and put to rest injury doubts.
