67 The highly anticipated international friendly between the Super Eagles of Nigeria and world champions Argentina will be played at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, United States of America on Tuesday, March 26.
The friendly was previously moved from Japan to China.
Disagreement between Argentina captain Lionel Messi and Chinese authorities forced the organisers to look for a new venue.
La Albiceleste are also expected to take on El Salvador in another friendly in March.
The encounter will be the Super Eagles first outing since their 2023 Africa Cup of Nations final fixture against the Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire.
The West Africans lost the game played at the Alassanne Quattara Stadium, Ebimpe, Abidjan 2-1.
The Super Eagles will use the game to prepare for their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers coming up in June against South Africa and Benin Republic.
