Super Eagles of Nigeria are to arrive in
Brazil's Manaus city hours before their match against Japan at
the Rio 2016 Olympics.
They are due to leave Atlanta in the US at around 11:00
GMT to fly for seven hours and then start the match at 01:00 GMT.
The squad was stuck in the US because the plane was too
small for them. They had previously had a dispute over payment, which
had been sorted out. The Nigerian sports ministry insisted a new payment had
been made to the airline, BBC Sports reports.
