Nigeria get Bafana Bafana test

The South Africa Football Association (SAFA)

through official channels have confirmed aninternational friendly between Nigeria and

South Africa.
The game between the Bafana Bafana and the

Super Eagles will be held at the Mbombela

Stadium in South Africa on March 29.
Nigeria were initially scheduled to take on the Black Stars of

Ghana in London on the same date but Fifa's new

regulations regarding playing games within continents inside

three days put paid to that.
SAFA, who have been trying to tie down a team for the

Bafana Bafana on the Fifa free window have eventually

settled for Nigeria in what promises to be an interesting
game.
The last time the two teams met was in an Africa Cup of

Nations qualifier in Uyo in 2014. Nigeria held South Africa to

a 2-2 draw which effectively ended Nigeria's qualification

hopes for the bienneial Africa football showpiece event.
