The international friendly between Nigeria and world champions Argentina will no longer hold as planned.
The encounter was slated for the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, United States of America on Tuesday, March 26.
It has now been called off due to short time to process visas for Nigerian delegation.
The organisers earlier scheduled the friendly for China but had to look for another venue following a disagreement between Argentine superstar Lionel Messi and Chinese authorities.
Argentina are now expected to take on Costa Rica as alternative to the Super Eagles. READ ALSO:
