Nigeria and Uganda failed to find a cutting edge as the African teams fluffed a series of chances in a 0-0 draw in a friendly in Asaba on Tuesday.
Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen came closest to breaking the deadlock in the first half at the Stephen Keshi Stadium.
He failed to punish the Cranes when put through on goal by impressive debutant Samuel Chukwueze.
Isaac Success and Mikel Agu also squandered opportunities for Nigeria.
This came after the Super Eagles weathered some pressure from Uganda, whom like Nigeria have also qualified for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
Eagles gaffer Gernot Rohr gave the opportunity to several young players to impress.
Villarreal winger Samuel Chukwueze made his senior debut for Nigeria while Semi Ajayi, Victor Osimhen and Mikel Agu earned their spots in the starting XI.
