This September, Nigeria U23 national team also known as “Dream team VI,” will be playing Egypt, Ghana, and Senegal U23 in Group B of the men’s football event, 2015 All African Games at Brazzaville Congo.
Group B have been labelled by many sports analysts as ‘the group of death,” but most Nigerian fans are optimistic that their Dream team will win this one.
Although, the Samson Siasia tutored side would be fielding less than its full strength team, some of the notable players like top striker Taiwo Awoniyi, Simon Sokari won’t be on duty during the games, due to club commitment.
