Nigeria–Tanzania AFCON qualifier scheduled for Uyo on November 13

The Nigeria Football Federation scheduled the Super Eagles’ home qualifier against Tanzania for Friday, November 13, at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo.

In its official notice published on November 7, the federation set kick-off for 5pm Nigerian time. The match is designated as the third round of the qualifying series for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations.

The notice identifies Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda as hosts of the final tournament. It confirms the venue and scheduled time, providing a direct federation reference for supporters following the fixture.

The announcement was issued as a media-accreditation notice. It does not establish a final team selection, injury update, broadcast arrangement or match result, so those details require separate confirmation.

For coverage of the game, the scheduled fixture and the eventual outcome must remain distinct. This report records the federation’s match arrangements; it should be updated with an official result once the encounter has concluded.
