The coach of the Nigeria U20 team Paul Aigbogun has revealed his starting lineup for their second group game against the USA in the ongoing 2019 U20 World Youth Championship in Poland.
Despite winning their opening game 4-0 against Qatar, coach Aigbogun dropped Tijjani Muhammed who started in that game for Jerome Akor who came in as a substitute in the win over Qatar.
