    They won their last match against CS Minaur with 5 goals to 1. FC Someșul Dej regular goal tender is a 32 years old Sorin Gavris, a Romanian. Boison Wynney De Souza is mostly unused. I really don’t see any problem with the Super Eagles facing the Lone Stars but our charges should ensure no stone is left unturned. I’m predicting 5 zero in our favour.

    Super Eagles must watch out for 2 key plays on the Lone Star side, 1. William Jebor a Liberian professional footballer who plays as a striker. He is the second Liberian to be an Africa Footballer of the Year nominee, after George Weah, he is very prolific in front of goal.
    2. Oscar Murphy Dorley who plays as a midfielder for Slavia Prague. This guy distribution can be compared to Aribo if not better. I would like Iwobi to take him out of the MF with his ball holding role.
