ABUJA, Sept. 9 (Xinhua) -- Nigeria's Super Eagles were decamped in Abuja on Sunday to enable them resume training during the first week of October for their return clash with the Lone Star of Liberia.
Coach Stephen Keshi announced the breaking of camp to the players immediately on return to Abuja Sunday morning.
The Super Eagles are due to host the Liberians in southeast Cross Rivers State on Oct. 13, a second leg match of their 2013 African Nations Cup final qualifying round fixture, with the aggregate winner going through to the finals in South Africa.
Nigeria was held to a 2-2 draw by the Lone Star on Sept. 8 in the first leg at the Samuel Kanyon Doe Stadium in Monrovia.
"Those that will be needed for the return leg match will be notified early," Keshi told the players.
The team which had departed Abuja on Friday morning for the Saturday game had arrived in Abuja in the early hours of Sunday after leaving Monrovia about three hours earlier.
