Faulty Abuja Stadium Floodlight Hinders Eagles’ Training

The Super Eagles were not able to train under floodlight yesterday because the Abuja Stadium does not have the facilities to supply light to the pitch at night, an official of the team has revealed.

The Super Eagles were earlier scheduled to train at least three times at night to condition the players with what they will encounter when they meet Swaziland in a World Cup qualifier in Mbabane this weekend. But the team was forced to cancel such plans when they realized the stadium did not have the facilities to power the floodlight.
