Ahead of today\u2019s International friendly game, Super Eagles defender Kenneth Omeruo emphasised that the upcoming match against eternal rivals Ghana will not be treated as a friendly encounter.<\/p>\n

The West African giants are set to face off once again at the Grand Stade de Marrakech, Morocco, on Friday,\u00a0 March 22, renewing their age-old battle for supremacy.<\/p>\n

Omeruo stressed that matches between Nigeria and Ghana are typically anything but friendly affairs, underscoring the competitive nature of their encounters.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on the team\u2019s preparations for the highly anticipated fixture against Otto Addo\u2019s men, Omeruo expressed satisfaction with the training sessions and camaraderie within the squad. \u201cPreparation has been great,\u201d he stated. \u201cIt\u2019s good to be back in camp again after the AFCON. I\u2019m happy to see the likes of Ndidi, who was missing, and the other boys again.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Kasimpasa defender highlighted the team\u2019s focus on training and tactical preparation in anticipation of the match. \u201cWe are training and working hard, working on our tactics to win this game,\u201d Omeruo remarked. \u201cYou know it\u2019s usually not a friendly game against Ghana. We are ready and will go all out to win the game.\u201d<\/p>\n

With kickoff scheduled for 5 pm Nigeria time.<\/p>\n
