“We train in the afternoon, to see how it is here, 5pm which is the time of the match on Saturday. It was okay we have good feeling with the players. Some of them played two days ago, so we have to be careful with injuries.
“Everything went well we had a good session. I saw good goals in training, we had a shooting excercise.Everything is fine here. We have good conditions in Morocco. We train to prepare for the game.
” I hope that by tomorrow everybody will be here. Osimhen and Ighalo will be here as well as Noble who replaces Uzoho who cannot make it. We hope that everything will go well without any injuries. The match will be on Saturday in a good condition in this beautiful weather and in a good stadium.
Saturday’s encounter will take place at the Grande Stade de Tanger.

Egunje master can you tell us your criteria in inviting Noble?
Only them know why Noble is there, but anyhow man must wack. Is he better than Alampasu?, Olorunleke? Afelokhai?
That means John Noble has bribed Gernoth Rohr abi?
..But the Coach deserves the right to invite whoever he so wish. Don’t you think so?
Baba this men and DW will cripple our football just give them one more year.
Alloy Agu no know him work nah.
Stop talking like a lunatic. Do you think Rohr even knew who noble was? Do you think he’s been scouting Noble? Clearly the player was forced on him because that’s how your NFF operates. Thankfully, noble won’t play and after the qualifiers, he’s done
Can see the man in a “beautiful conditions and a good stadium” not the one normally provided in Nigeria and expect them to always win every Tom and harry mtcheeeeew
Okay sir if that is the case and the pitch is a problem. Den why this Ighalo “so-called” rescue mission? if the pitch was to blame the whole time. Mind you Iheanacho Scored 2 goals on the same rugged pitch. @tayo stop supporting Rohr Flimsy excuse are you that Gullible in life?. also Osimhen was Afon Qualifier highest goal scorer on the same pitch and even worse pitches.
STOP Supporting Wrong decisions and look deeper bro!
Thanks for the update CN. Pls what time are they training tomorrow?
2022 WCQ: Rohr Satisfied With Super Eagles’ Preparation For Liberia, Cape Verde Games. Even me dey satisfied. God blessings lads.
He even said in attendance were 21 players. That’s is also very correct. Let have another base e joo o
Any link for tomorrow training pls?
Just look at this Sura def, people are giving new advise to appoint new players into eagles already inside closed door camp, you are asking for a link. Ok GoTo http://www.hegoat.com ,9am
Sura what training are you talking about? Are those guys really training or vlogging? This coach doesn’t have a tactics he trains on, aside fitness it’s just gather and play and nothing more.
This man will just be stylishly telling our stupid NFF to work on our pitches, hammering it like 4 times lolll. Real old man with sense. Up SE.
Can someone tell Ekong to be careful with that vlogging bullshit. WC qualifiers is no child’s play. I don’t know many players who do this vlogging on national assignments.
Wishing the Super Eagles all the best yo!
KEEP TELLING THE USELESS NFF HOW A STADIUM OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY IS GOOD FOR THE EAGLES. Instead of them to play match in Uyo they will take to a cassava stadium in Lagos.
All the stadiums we have are sports track and field pitches. Like other top football nations Nigeria is yet to have a specific stadium for the super eagles. And I believe Lagos state government can build one as a permanent home ground for the eagles with hotels and training facilities around Ekò Atlantic if they so wish.
