After failing to give clear-cut information for a couple of days, the Guinean Football Federation has finally made it known that the country’s Under 20 football team will arrive in Nigeria today for the 2011 African Youth Championship qualifier against Nigeria billed for Saturday.
Efforts to get the General Secretary of the Guinea Football Federation, Monsieur Fode Kapi Camara to provide exact details of the team’s arrival programme for some days now has proved abortive, even as the Nigeria Football Federation continued to make arrangement for their possible un-announced arrival.
The team is now expected to arrive at the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos aboard a Royal Air Maroc flight by today and then move to Abuja to have a feel of the National Stadium turf ahead of tomorrow’s match.
Five –time continental champions, Flying Eagles have moved to Peace Haven hotel in the capital for the final days of their preparation for the game, which begins at the National Stadium Complex at 4pm on Saturday.
The Junior Syli Nationale will be accommodated at the Agura Hotel while the match officials from Burkina Faso are staying at NICON Luxury hotel.
Saturday’s 2011 African Youth Championship qualifier is the first of a two-legged affair, with the return set for Conakry in two weeks’ time.
