Dream Team to play Zambia if they overcome Gabon
Nigeria U-23 side, the Dream Team, will play their Zambian counterpart in the next qualifying round for the 11th All-Africa Games if they overcome Gabon.
The Samson Siasia-tutored side has a first leg advantage over the Gabonese whom they beat 4-1 in Libreville on Saturday with the return leg set for Abuja on March 7.
The winner is billed to play the winner between Zambia and Madagascar, but the Indian Ocean islanders withdrew from the race, handing an automatic final round ticket to the Zambians.
The first leg of the final round fixture will take place in Nigeria only two weeks after the return leg with the Gabonese.
Zimbabwe, Mali, Cote d’Ivoire and Burkina Faso have reached the final round of qualifiers following the withdrawals of Swaziland, Tunisia, Guinea Bissau and Libya.
