Cameroon held Nigeria to a goalless draw in a warm-up friendly ahead of the 2018 African Nations Championship.
A full-strength Nigerian side, which included Ikechukwu Ezenwa, Rabiu Ali and Ifeanyi Ifeanyi, were unable to break down the determined and physical Indomitable Lions.
The Cameronians almost won it in injury time but substitute goalkeeper Oladele Ajiboye produced a world-class save to earn Nigeria a point.
Although unable to make a statement with a victory, the Nigerian team will take positives from the possession football they exhibited in the second half.
