Brazil hold Super Eagles 1-1 in friendly encounter

The Super Eagles of Nigeria drewn 1-1 against Brazil in an international friendly in Singapore on Sunday afternoon.

Joe Aribo scored in the 34th minute to put the Super Eagles in front.

Brazil leveled shortly after the interval when Real Madrid midfielder Casemiro tapped home a rebound after Maquinhos had headed off the woodwork, following a corner kick in the 48th minute.

The result was a huge confidence booster for the Super Eagles, who begin their race to the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations with qualifying matches against the Benin Republic and Lesotho next month. It was also a huge improvement from Nigeria’s 0-3 defeat to the Selecao in a friendly match in Abuja on June 2003.
