WATCH: Super Eagles players have a feel of the magnificent AT&T Stadium

Players and officials of the Super Eagles had a feel of the magnificent AT&T Stadium in Arlington Texas just before going out against El Tri of Mexico.

The AT&T Stadium is one of the biggest football stadiums in the world and also hosts the Dallas Cowboys in the NFL.

It has hosted some of the world’s biggest sporting events.

Super Eagles, mostly comprising of foreign-based professionals were in the stadium to feel the turf and have a feel of the ambience before the game against the World Cup campaigners.

Nigeria will face Mexico hoping to cancel a 4-0 loss suffered in July 2021 against the North Americans.

Ola Aina, who stayed alone as he felt the pitch,  has not been selected as part of the players for the game with a potential fitness issue believed to be the cause of his absence from the squad list.

The game will also see Cyriel Dessers start his first game for Nigeria while every other player in the squad have had their chances with the Super Eagles in the past.
