Nigeria’s Super Eagles failed to continue their winning streak over the Raggae Boys of Jamaica on Wednesday night as they were forced to a goalless draw by the Jamaicans in an international friendly match played at the New Den ground of Millwall FC of England.
The Super Eagles approached the match on a casual note but came out smoking towards the end of the first half playing the Jamaicans strength for strength.
The physical appraoch of the game by both teams, however, resulted resulted in a red card given to Taye Taiwo and Jarmaine Johnson in the 43rd minute.
At the resumption of the second half, both teams lost a couple of begging chances with the Nigerian side being the worst culprit.
Nigeria had played Jamaica six times, won four, drawn one and lost one. Wednesday’s match was part of the build-up to the March 28 last phase of the 2010 World Cup qualifiers against the Mamba of Mozambique at the Machava Stadium in Maputo.
