AFCON Qualifiers: Tanzania Land In Uyo For Crucial Super Eagles Showdown

By NewsDESK –

Tanzania’s national team, the Taifa Stars, have arrived in Uyo ahead of their 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, qualifying match against Nigeria.

The players and their officials arrived at the Victor Attah International Airport on Tuesday, November 10, morning before heading to their hotel after completing immigration procedures.

The team, led by head coach Miguel Gamondi, had a training session at the practice pitch of the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium same day in the evening as they prepare for the important match.

Tanzania arrived early to give the players enough time to settle down, adjust to the weather and prepare for the game against the Super Eagles.

Nigeria will host Tanzania in their third match of the 2027 AFCON qualifying campaign at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on Friday, November 13.

Both teams will meet again next Tuesday, November 17, in the return leg as the qualifying campaign continues.
