CHAN'24: Super Eagles B share spoils with Zanzibar FC in final preparation
Nigeria Super Eagles B settled for another draw in a friendly game against Zanzibar on Thursday, NigeriaSoccernet.com reports.
After a goalless draw some days ago, Nigeria and Tanzania sides, Zanzibar FC, played a 2-2 draw.
Nigeria looked set for a dominant win after two quick-fire goals from Anas Yusuf (Nasarawa United) and Adedayo Olamilekan (Remo Stars) lit up the first half.
However, Zanzibar had other plans, mounting a spirited comeback to level the score at 2-2 by full-time.
Coach Eric Chelle made five changes from the previous outing, giving starts to Akanni Kudus, Egbe Manyo, Malik Jabbar, Vincent Temitope, and goal-scorer Anas Yusuf.
In a strategic second half, Chelle gave the entire bench a run-out, experimenting with formations and urging caution to avoid injuries with CHAN just days away.
Next is to move to the official accommodation before their first game vs Senegal on Aug 5th
