Two of Africa's football giants, Ghana and Nigeria, are poised to renew their historic rivalry on the pitch later this month.
Confirmed by the Nigeria Football Federation, the Super Eagles will face the Black Stars in an international friendly slated for March 22nd in Marrakech.
This eagerly awaited match will mark the 57th meeting between the two sides, with Ghana historically holding the advantage with 25 wins compared to Nigeria's 12 victories.
The most recent encounter occurred in 2022 when Ghana ousted Nigeria from the Qatar World Cup qualifiers with a 1-1 aggregate draw, advancing on the away goal rule.
Interestingly, Nigeria's current head coach, Augustine Eguavoen, led the Super Eagles during that contest and seeks redemption against Ghana.
Eguavoen assumed the interim coaching role following José Peseiro's departure after guiding Nigeria to the AFCON final in Ivory Coast last month.
Meanwhile, Ghana is currently coach-less, but the Ghana Football Association (GFA) is reportedly in the process of appointing a new coach who will likely lead the Black Stars in the Nigeria friendly.
In addition to the Nigeria clash, Uganda has announced an international friendly against Ghana scheduled for March 26th, just four days after the Nigeria-Ghana encounter. Both matches will take place in Marrakech, Morocco.
With a rich history of competition between these West African powerhouses, the upcoming friendly promises an exciting spectacle for football fans.
