Ahead of the Flying Eagles preparations for the 2015 African Youth Championship billed for Senegal, the team are preparing to play two more friendly games before the end of this year to ensure that everything has been put in place.

The Manu Garba-led U-20 are scheduled to clash against Ace Academy of Kaduna on Wednesday at the Ahmadu Bello Stadiu, Kaduna before taking on YSFON national selected side two days later at the same venue.

The team will then go on Christmas break shortly after the games and then resume on December 27, 2014 with seven foreign based players to put some more finishing touches to their tactical strategies.

The Flying Eagles defeated Jamba Academy 4-1 before spanking another amateur side, Standard FC of Zaria 12-0.

Manu Garba's team will battle with seven other countries for a place in next year's Fifa U-20 World Cup to be staged in New Zealand. goal
