Tanzania’s national football team, the Taifa Stars, have arrived in Uyo ahead of their 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against Nigeria.
The squad and coaching staff landed at Victor Attah International Airport on Tuesday morning and proceeded to their hotel after completing immigration formalities.
Led by head coach Miguel Gamondi, the Taifa Stars are scheduled to hold a training session later in the day at the practice pitch of the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium as they prepare for the crucial encounter.
Arriving early will allow the team ample time to acclimatize, settle in, and fine-tune their preparations before facing the Super Eagles. Nigeria will host Tanzania in the third match of their 2027 AFCON qualifying campaign at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on Friday. Both teams are set to clash again next Tuesday in the return leg as the qualification battle continues.
