There were fears that Igiebor, might not make the team, when he failed to arrive Faro, Portugal as arranged with Head Coach, Stephen Keshi, but immediately evaporated when he appeared in camp on Tuesday afternoon, as the team landed in Barcelona.

 The flight took just 35minutes. After immigration formalities the team set out for Barcelona and arrived the city at about 11:20am Nigeria and Spanish time. The flight lasted 1:30minutes
