At least 4,000 spectators, mostly locals, witnessed the Nigeria squad train on Friday afternoon.
Nigeria face Iran in Monday opener and the team is focused on the three maximum points against Team Melli.
Meanwhile, Nigeria’s base camp is under tight security but the few Brazilian fans who managed to gain access to the hotel have been well received by the Super Eagles players especially Vincent Enyeama and John Obi Mikel.
The Nigeria delegation has made an urgent request to the World Cup organizers for the official bus allocated to the Super Eagles to be changed after a hit-and-run driver damaged the left side mirror of the vehicle.
The incident occurred on Thursday afternoon just before the team departed the hotel for their second training session at Estádio Brinco de Ouro, which began at 2000 hours Nigerian time.
The coach was parked in front of the Vitória Hotel Concept, Campinas when the accident happened, and the offender sped off instead of handing himself over to the authorities.
