Nigeria’s home-based Super Eagles yesterday proved too strong for Yemen in the international friendly match played at the Sevens Stadium in Dubai.
Striker Mfon Udoh scored the first goal in the 25th minute, while Warri Wolves defender, Azubuike Agwuekwe completed the pipping of their lowly opponents in the 64th minute.
The Eagles were originally meant to play against Sudan who also failed to qualify for the the Africa Cup of Nations. They were in the same group with Nigeria.
The Super Eagles dominated the game with their ball possession, but failed to create scoring chances to finish off the Arab nation. The Eagles coached by Daniel Amokachi had lost 1-0 to AFCON favourites Cote ‘d Iovire in a previous game.
