Players and officials of the Super Eagles are expected to Singapore on Wednesday for Sunday’s friendly encounter against five-time world champions, Brazil, reports Completesports.com.
The team will be lodged at the Fairmont Hotel, Singapore.
The game which is billed to hold at the Singapore National Stadium, Kallang will kick-off at 1pm Nigerian time.
Head coach of the side, Gernot Rohr is expected to lead the team out for their first training session ahead of the game on Wednesday.
Brazil defeated the Super Eagles 3-0 the last time both teams met in a friendly encounter in 2003 at the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja.
The Selecao will first square up against the Teranga Lions of Senegal on Thursday, before doing battle with the Super Eagles three days later.

I reckon we should have arrived Monday evening to start training tue morning,so that we can have ample time for blending especially when you are blooding a couple of new lads.
My thought as well
Failure to arrive early for matches has been Nigerian football issue for years and up till now, the management is yet to learn. It’s so sad.
According to Wednesday Nation Newspaper online the Brazil match is in serious jeopardy bcos Nigeria cannot secure visa for the players. The report says the organizers of the match messed up the visa issue. Is that fake news or simply being alarmists?
Oga Rohr and the SuperEagles, you’ve got 200 million people behind you. In our climes, we respect others, but know no fear. Drop the defensive/conservative style of play. What we’d like to see is offensive/attaching football. A style that lets the boys vibrate, gyrate in rhythm, moving forward to get the job done. A pattern that’s at once sensuous, entertaining and productive. That’s the Naija style. Defensive football is bitter.
Lets do it again…
No fears, we will soar high… The team is in high spirit….
Please,can someone tell me where or platform to watch the match cos I just checked Supersport schedule of football matches for Sunday 13th and is not there,though I saw on Eurosport but we don’t have it on Dstv
This will be a very good match for the team but they should have made plans to travel on Tuesday to acclimatize to weather in that country but all the same this match should be an opportunity to give the new players especially the goalkeeper
Why arriving Wednesday? Brazil already traind pn Monday.
Oga Rhor no go play back pass defensive game.
Attack attack attack , abeg make you go watch Atlanta 1996 Nig v Brazil.
Abeg make you no play morinho pack bus game.
Good luck SE.
I wish Supper Eagles the best of luck and,I also thank NFF for this standard friendly March to text the players.Therefore, as grade “A”march our players will learn a lot from it.Have a wonderful March free of injury
I probably would check d result later cuz i just don’t have any faith in mr rohr. We’ll probably loose d game.
I honestly think by the way n manner we r going we have all d resources to beat d Brazilian but corruption n selfish reasons won’t allow us to do dat. Mr R plz choose the best legs play positive football Attacking tactics we have what it takes.. hahhhh
CSN can’t even provide an updated picture of the super eagles’ players that is in camp…
Well Today is Wednesday . I hope they land safely. I even wonder why the proper planning didn’t happen earlier . Anyway, let them come safely and start preparing .
For CSN ,after this match and whatever friendly match that might come next for Super Eagles, I would like NFF to find the means. To organize a future friendly match with the Portuguese national team , with Cristiano Ronaldo in it. @ least before he quits the national team. I hope you deliver this message to NFF
Waooooh wish I was aware would have flew from Japan to watch the match
