Boss said after a 5-0 trashing of Skylink FC of Jos, in a tune-up game last Friday in Abuja.

“The Flying Eagles contingent is expected to hit Argentina on May 6th, with the development, we’ll have 12 days before the competition to further fine-tune our preparations as we look forward to playing international friendly games against other countries in other groups before we take on the Dominican Republic.”

Meanwhile, in the preparatory match, two first-half goals from Mohammed Beji and another two second-half brace by El-kanemi Warriors striker, Baakala with a goal by Samson in between the two scorers completed the rout.
