Coach of the Nigeria U20 team has been forced into a late change in his starting lineup for their opening game against Qatar at the ongoing Poland 2019 U20 World Youth Championship.
Rosenborg defender Igho Ogbu failed a late fitness test and Aliu Salawudeen comes in for him to pair Valentine Ozornwafor in central defence while Nnamdi Ofoborh drops to the bench for Tijjani Mohammed.
