- The Super Eagles were beaten by Cameroon in Austria
- Former Fox Ahmed Musa also featured on Friday night

Popular Nigeria duo Iheanacho and Ndidi both started for the Super Eagles at Stadion Wiener Neustadt, as André-Frank Zambo Anguissa’s first half strike gave Cameroon victory.

Earning his 39th cap for Nigeria, 24-year-old midfielder Ndidi played the full game while in-form striker Iheanacho was replaced by former Fox Ahmed Musa on 65 minutes.

Both Iheanacho and Ndidi had chances to equalise for Gernot Rohr’s side after the interval, but Cameroon held on as both sides got their summer internationals underway.

Danny Ward, Papy Mendy and Shane Flynn could all be in action for their countries tomorrow (Saturday). Follow @lcfc on social media for updates.
