AFCON Qualifier: Super Eagles vs Squirrels of Benin Suffers Setback
  • PublishedMarch 17, 2021

The AFCON qualifying Match between Nigeria’s Super Eagles and the Squirrels of Benin billed to hold at the Stade Charles de Gaulle on Saturday 27th March 2021 may have suffered a setback.

Head Coach, Michel Dussuyer, announced his frustration that he was unable to pick the team to confront group leaders Nigeria because most of the European clubs where these Benin players ply their trades have been denied permission to travel home for the game.

Dussuyer had earlier planned to announce the team list yesterday but was unable to do so; he claimed that several of his players, especially those in France were told that they would not be released for both the home match with Nigeria and the away encounter with Sierra Leone.
