Flying Eagles Official Inspects Under 20 World Cup Facilities

The secretary of Nigeria's Flying Eagles, Ibrahim Aliyu Auwal, has departed for New Zealand, where he will inspect facilities at the team’s venue for next month’s FIFA Under 20 World Cup.

The facilities will cover such aspects as hotel boarding, stadium, training and medical.

African champions Nigeria are drawn in Group E along with Brazil, Hungary and North Korea.

They will play all their first round matches at the 46,000-capacity Yarrow Stadium, formerly known as Stadium Taranaki, in New Plymouth beginning with their opening group game against Brazil on June 1.

Auwal is due back in Nigeria later this week.
