Super Eagles to Face Iran and Jordan in Turkey Friendly
The Nigeria Super Eagles are set to compete against Iran and Jordan in a friendly tournament scheduled for March 2026 in Antalya, Turkey. This decision comes after the Jordan Football Association (JFA) announced the relocation of the matches from Amman due to the ongoing war in the Middle East, which has limited movement in the region.
The tournament will feature four teams, with the Super Eagles facing Iran on Friday, March 27, marking their first encounter during the World Cup qualification phase. Four days later, Costa Rica will also participate in the tournament.
The JFA confirmed the details on its official website, ensuring that the schedule for the friendly matches remains unchanged despite the relocation.
