Head coach of Nigeria U-23, Samson Siasia, has listed 18 players for the second leg of the 2015 All African Games qualifier against Zambia.
The first leg of the tie played in Abuja two weeks ago, ended in a goalless draw and Siasia’s team must get a win or a draw to book their place at the competition.
Nigeria’s presence at the All Africa Games is crucial, as the tournament serves as qualifiers for the 2016 Olympic Games in Brazil.
Goalkeeper Dele Alampasu has been dropped from the team that travelled to Lusaka, while Awoniyi Taiwo and Bernard Bulbwa made the cut.
Goal keepers: Daniel Emmanuel, Akande Abiodun.
Defenders: Obanor Erhun, Oduduwa Segun, Amuzie Stanley, Atanda Sodiq, Mustapha Abdullahi, Iroha Chukwuebuka.
Midfielders: Azubuike Okechukwu, Godwin Savior, Mohammed Usman, Sokari Kingsley.
Forwards: Etebo Oghenekaro, Ajayi Junior, Onyekachi Peter, Awoniyi Taiwo, Ubong Ekpai, Bernard Bulbwa
