Serbia cruise past Nigeria

A dominant Serbia humbled Nigeria 2-0 in an international friendly at the Hive Stadium on Tuesday night.

Super Eagles head coach Gernot Rohr made four changes to the side that pipped Poland 1-0 in Wroclaw.

The 64-year-old handed starting shirts to Tyronne Ebuehi, Ogenyi Onazi, Ahmed Musa and Chidozie Awaziem.

The Serbs easily moved the ball around in the opening 8 minutes and forced the Super Eagles to chase the ball.

Aleksandar Mitrovic forced Francis Uzoho to a save in the 9th minute after he nutmegged Onazi at the edge of the box.
The Eagles then upped the ante and attacked with precision.

CSKA Moscow star, Musa, who played as a centre-forward then ran at the Serbian defence before being crowded out.

Victor Moses showed quality with a great shot which was palmed away by Stojkovic while Onazi tried his luck from long range.
