Nigeria vs Athletico Madrid! I must admit, the match fixture not only seems odd, it sounds odd.
A country versus a club. The truth about it is that this fixture is going to change a lot of things.

For starters, it will give us a real chance to meet a squad not only in form but who are also reigning champions.
This match will help us evaluate the preparedness of our boys in green and white and also we get a chance 5o admire our new jersey.

The 30,000 capacity ultramodern stadium is one of the best Nigeria has to offer.
The time has been confirmed to be 6 pm West African time.

According to goal.com the squad list for Athletico madrid include:
Goalkeepers: Jan Oblak, Axel Werner

Defenders: JuanFran, Sergio Gonzalez, Francisco Montero, Rafael Munoz, Andres Solano

Midfielders: Gabi Fernandez , Angel Correa, Victor ‘Vitolo’ Perez, Thomas Partey, Roberto Olabe, Juan Aguero Nunez, Antonio Moya, Mikel Carro, Joaqiun Munoz, Jot

Strikers: Fernando Torres, Kevin Gameiro, Borja Garces

On this note, I am throwing open a competition...guess the correct score and method of first goal and win steem from me...

Hmmm let me not say what's on my mind o. Nigeria 2, Althletico 3

We have a winner...

Yippieyyyyy :D Thank you @ehiboss.

I will forward 5 steem to you..you got the score but you didn't predict the first goal😭

😄 Thank you so much @ehiboss, i still appreciate it alot.

Nig 2 - 2 Atl....first goal will be through set piece 🤞🏾

Well before predicting, I must say that this match is gonna really be tough for Nigeria based on the rating of the club that they will be playing against, but at the same time, they must win because they knew how much NFA has invested in this match to make sure that they convinced A.Madrid to release their players to play against them. And also, they can't afford to disappointing their million fans that will be watching them all over the nation, though I don't believe that is a true taste of the level of their preparation towards the upcoming world cup, because A. Madrid will be playing for Fun which may hamper perfect assessment.

Prediction:
Nigeria will score first through set-piece
Nigeria 2:1 A.Madrid

That match is going to be the one with a lot of goals.

I see a draw. Let's say Nigeria 0 vs atletico 0

Nigeria 3 - athletico Madrid 2
Nigeria to score first

I'm really liking the new jersey

Nigeria 1 vs Athletico Madrid 3

This match will end 3:1 in favor of Madrid

It will be a 2 all draw.
