FOOTBALL fans have heaped praise on Nigeria’s new kit… even though it is missing one key detail.
The Super Eagles’ classic black and green colours will remain one of their strips – with supporters going crazy for the latest iteration.
But in a break from convention, the other kit is white with green trim.

And even more surprising is the fact that there is no badge on the jersey.
Yet despite this unique detail missing from the shirt, the reaction was overwhelmingly positive.
