Nigeria's national U23 coach, Samson Siasia, has said that he plans to have his team ready for the 2016 summer Olympics in Rio by playing grade A warm up games.
The former Flting Eagles manager, who disclosed that the team has limited time to prepare the Dream Team VI is hoping to use the game against Rogério Micale’s Brazilian side to fine tune his team and help bring targeted players together and blend them ahead of the competition.
“We have barely six months to the Olympics and I want to ensure we play international friendly matches within the Fifa window between now and August,” Siasia told SportingLife.
“That way we can bring our targeted players to play together and blend well. But this can only be done if they play together frequently and against good opponents.”
