“This will help us prepare ourselves for the 2021 Afcon qualifiers against the Benin Republic and Lesotho next month.” Nigeria

The South American champions forced Nigeria to a 1-1 draw at the Singapore National Stadium in Kallang, but the impressive display by the Super Eagles, who finished third at the African Nations Cup in February, left many of their fans thinking that the good days are back. But Rohr urges caution, saying, however, that the team is beginning to show the quality he has always known that they possess.

“It was a fantastic opportunity for us to learn a few more things that will make us better and stronger for future challenges. Yesterday, Villarreal of Spain’s Chukwueze, a former Nigeria U17 World Cup winner, was a thorn in the flesh of the Selecao throughout, and created chances for Nigeria in the 20th and 24th minute but Osimhen was cut out by an alert Brazilian rear.

The Brazilians regrouped in the second half and launched onslaught after onslaught, with their equalizer coming in the 48th minute through Casemiro, who reacted faster than the defense when the ball bounced off the crossbar from a Marquinhos header.
