Stephen Keshi selects uncapped trio for Nigeria

Nigeria coach Stephen Yeshi selects three uncapped players for his side's friendly with Mexico next month.

Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has given Standard Liege striker Imoh Ezekiel an opportunity to impress ahead of the World Cup this summer.

Ezekiel, who has netted eight times in the Belgian Pro League this season, has been named alongside fellow uncapped players Ramon Azeez and Michael Uchebo for Nigeria's friendly with Mexico in Atlanta on March 5.

Azeez, a midfielder for Almeria, has made 18 appearances in La Liga during the current campaign, while Uchebo has scored on five occasions for Cercle Brugge.

Defender Juwon Oshaniwa, who hasn't featured for Nigeria since last year's Africa Cup of Nations triumph, has also been included.
