Nigeria U-20 national team ‘Flying Eagles’ shunned the holiday festivities to train on Good Friday at the practice pitch of the Abuja National Stadium.
The Flying Eagles trio of Bernard Bulbwa, Chidera Eze and Ahmed Umar trained outside the main squad as they are nursing injuries.
Bulbwa has a groin injury, Eze is nursing a hamstring strain and Umar has a knock on his right knee. Chidiebere Nwakali, who also has a knee complaint, took part in all the training drills, but did not feature in the two-a-side game as he has yet to start kicking a football.
