Russia-Bound Super Eagles Set For Final Workout, Zambia To Train At Nest Of Champions

Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that the Super Eagles are set for their final training session before Saturday's World Cup qualifier against the Zambian national team.

As per the rules of the Confederation of African Football, the Copper Bullets must be allowed by their host to have a feel of the main pitch of Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, meaning the Super Eagles will have to train at the practice pitch since both teams will have their workouts almost simultaneously.

Players and coaching staff of the Super Eagles will depart the Le Meridien Ibom Hotel and Golf Resort at 1630 hours for the training session which is expected to last for one hour and will be held behind closed doors.

This morning, they worked in the gym before taking a light walk inside the hotel premises.

The Super Eagles plan to arrive the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium two hours before the start of the game against Zambia on Saturday.

Nigeria will book their place at the 2018 World Cup if they beat Zambia.
