The Enyimba goalkeeper is expected to make his international bow when the Super Eagles square up against El Tri at the Los Angeles Coliseum
David Ariyo has challenged John Noble to prove his worth when Nigeria tackle Mexico on Saturday with Ikechukwu Ezenwa ruled out.
Ezenwa suffered an ankle injury during a training session and NFF technical director Austin Eguavoen confirmed he will miss the international friendly against Gerardo Martino’s men.
The absence of the 32-year-old leaves the Super Eagles with Lobi Stars’ Nwabali Stanley and Enyimba’s Noble – who is expected to be in goal against El Tri.
