Speaking on the game, team Coordinator, Juninho Paulista, had this to say;

“It was the wish of the Technical Commission, so we went after these opponents, ” he said.

“We chose two of the best African teams because they are high-level confrontations and against a school that the Brazilian National Team has had few encounters in recent years.”

Nigeria and Brazil will be meeting for just the second time ever, with the first clash in 2003 when Brazil was comfortable 0-3 winners at the opening of the then New Abuja stadium.

The Super Eagles of Nigeria were recently held to a 2-2 draw by Ukraine in their first match since coming third at the 2019 AFCON hosted by Egypt.
