Tornadoes Ambush Dream Team VI

Dream Team VI will continue their preparations for an All Africa qualifier against Gabon on Thursday when they face Niger Tornadoes at the mainbowl of the Abuja National Stadium.


Coach Samson Siasia is expected to line up a strong team led by captain Erhn Obanor, Stanley Amuzie, Ogehenekaro Etebo and Godwin Saviour.

The Dream Team are fresh from a training tour of Tunisia, where they lost the first game in Tunis 5-3, before they rallied back to win the second game 3-0.

Another set of the team featured in the expanded Super 4, where they finished runners-up behind Flying Eagles.

The game will be on natural grass as they will confront Gabon on such a surface when both teams clash in an All Africa Games qualifier later this month.

The Olympic team have been training on the artificial turf at the FIFA Goal Project in Abuja.
