Nigeria’s Super Eagles have arrived Constantine ahead of the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Algeria on Friday.
The three-time African champions landed in the North African nation at about 1:30 pm (GMT +1) on Thursday afternoon.
According to the team’s official Twitter handle, their hosts were hospitable and receptive to Gernot Rohr’s team.

The Eagles had been training in Rabat, Morocco, for the showdown with the Desert Foxes.
It will be their final game of the qualifying series, having already booked the sole ticket to Russia from the group.
While the West Africans are yet to lose a single game, Algeria hasn’t managed to win thus far.
This will be the 19th clash between both sides, with the Nigerians superior, having won nine, drawn three and lost six.
The most recent meeting between the pair, around this time last year, ended in favour of the Super Eagles.
