Goalkeeper, Stanley Nwabali has been cleared to feature for the Super Eagles against Angola on Friday, February 2, 2024.

Nwabali was a major doubt for the game after sustaining a mild ligament injury in the Super Eagles Round of 16 victory against Cameroon.

The Chippa United shot stopper has now recovered fully from the injury.

The 27-year-old trained fully with his teammates at the Police College, Cocody, Abidjan on Wednesday night.

Nwabali has conceded just once in four appearances for the Super Eagles at the ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Cote d’Ivoire.

The Super Eagles will take on the Black Antelopes in a quarter-final tie at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium, Abidjan.

Nwabali sustained the injury in Nigeria’s 2-0 victory against the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon last Saturday.
