Leicester City star Wilfred Ndidi has been talking tough ahead of the Super Eagles’ eagerly anticipated friendly encounter with the Selecao, with the midfielder convinced that Nigeria has enough in attack and defense to hurt their opponents on Sunday.
Nigeria trade tackles with Brazil on Sunday at the Singapore National Stadium and Wilfred Ndidi is optimistic that the team’s preparation will help them overcome the Samba Boys, Soccernet.ng reports.
Copa America champions, Brazil, could only manage a 1-1 draw with Senegal on Thursday and Ndidi believes a few weaknesses observed in the Brazilian team could be exploited by him and his teammates.
“We watched the game between Brazil and Senegal, it was a good game and we have been preparing based on that, plus working on our shape,” Ndidi said.
“We have to find our solutions, while we’re trying to go deal with them, we are also mindful of our back.
Nigeria are set to face Brazil in an international friendly match slated for Singapore on Sunday, with kickoff billed for 1pm Nigerian time.
