U-23 AFCON qualifier: Olympic Eagles host Guinea March 22 in Ibadan

Date:

Nigeria’s U-23 side, the Olympic Eagles will entertain Guinea in the first leg of their 2023 Africa U-23 Cup of Nations at the Lekan Salami Stadium, Ibadan, on Wednesday, March 22.

The reverse fixture will take place on Monday, March 27.

The game is likely to be played in Morocco as no stadium in Guinea has been cleared to host international matches by the Confederation of African Football, CAF.

The overall winners will qualify for the U-23 AFCON to be staged in Morocco later in the year.

The Olympic Eagles defeated Tanzania 3-1 on aggregate in the previous round.

Nigeria won the 2015 edition of the competition in Senegal in 2015.
