Super Eagles of Nigeria held by the resilient Cranes of Uganda

The Super Eagles played out a goalless stalemate against their content visitors to kick-start their Afcon preparations

The friendly clash was played  at the Stephen Keshi Stadium, Asaba.

The Super Eagles were better placed to secure a win in their maiden game after booking a spot to next year’s African Cup of Nations finals but Sebastien Desabre’s selfish defence held firm to continue their impressive run so far.

Sporting Charleroi striker Victor Osimhen, on his full debut, had the clearest chances for the hosts but his efforts were off target while debutant and former U17 teammate Samuel Chukwueze impressed.
