I don’t understand, why should Nigeria leave Estadio San Juan del Bicentenario where they defeated Argentina to another stadium?
I believe you are not blaming NFF or the coach. It’s according to FiFA plan for the competition.
@Thanks, Flying eagles are meant to leave their stadium to another stadium because they came third in their group which gave them that disadvantage position
