P.M. EXPRESS reports that from Teslim Balogun Stadium, Surulere, Campos Mini Stadium, Lagos Island, Abesan playground at Abesan, Ipaja, Ajeromi Central Nursery & Primary School, Ajegunle, Bishop Aggrey Youth Centre, Mushin, Epe Recreation Centre, Badagry Grammar School, Badagry, Agege Stadium, Agege, Mobolaji Johnson Sports Centre, Rowe Park, Yaba and Italewa in Ikorodu, the turnout at these centres was massive as Lagosians indeed showed their passion for the round leather game despite the fact that the country’s senior team, the Super Eagles are no longer in the tournament.

The setting up of the viewing centres was at the instance of the sports-loving governor of the state, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu who made these happened through the Lagos State Sports Commission.
