SPORTS: NFF Confirms 2 International Friendlies for Super Eagles in USA
The Nigeria Football Federation has secured two friendly matches for the Super Eagles of Nigeria against Venezuela and Colombia, scheduled to take place in the United States of America.
This was confirmed by NFF’s FIFA Match Agent, JAIRO PACHON, who is reported to have said that the Super Eagles will play against Venezuela on Friday, November 14, 2025 at the Shell Stadium in Houston, Texas.
PACHON also said that the second friendly match for the Super Eagles against the Los Cafeteros of Colombia will hold on Tuesday, November 18, 2025, at the Citi Field Stadium in Flushing Meadows, Queens, New York.
In their last visit to the United States of America, in the summer of 2022, the Super Eagles played against Mexico at the AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas, losing narrowly by 1-2. Nigeria’s goal at that encounter came from a powerful header by Cyriel Dessers. It was the first match in charge for Portuguese Coach José Peseiro.
The Eagles also took on Ecuador’s La Tricolor in New Jersey, losing by the odd goal.
