Nigeria Vs Luxembourg: International Friendly On 31st Of May At 6:00pm

Venue: Josy Barthel Stadium, Luxembourg.

Kick-off Time: 6:00pm

Nigeria’s eagerly-awaited meeting with Luxembourg has been brought forward 24 hours, meaning it will now take place on May 31, 2016.

The game at the Josy Barthel Stadium had been scheduled to go ahead on the first day of June but that would not come to pass as the hosts are participating in the Tour de France cycling competition.


“The change in date will not in any way affect our program,” said team administrator Dayo Enebi.

“The entire contingent will move to Luxembourg from Rouen in France, where we will play Mali on 27th May. We will still have three days to train for the match against Luxembourg.”

He also confirmed that a number of technical and administrative officials have now been issued Schengen visas, enabling them to enter the country for the game.


Nigeria face Mali in Rouen on 27th May and play Luxembourg in that country on 31st May, as part of preparations for the first matches of the 2018 Fifa World Cup qualifying series.
