“The Italians are a good side but nothing is given in football until a match is played and ends. It is about the set-up, about the structure of your team and how much you bring to bear what you have noticed about the other team, ” Eguavoen told NFF.com.
” I’m happy our coaches saw the Italians play the Brazilians and it is now left for us all to put our heads together and devise a winning plan.”
The game will kick off at 7pm Nigerian time.

That is our technical department talk .. with this advice dey wil lule .
Having watch both teams I wil never advice the team to go all out to win . I wil tell them to make the first man in attack a defender… Lol And let see if Italy win not loss ..the technical office in nff need reorganizing.
Is the name Eguavoen still heard in Nigerian football? Are people still listening to him?
Hahaha, Ako Amadi, you made me laugh with that comment.
Bro, Eguavoen remains a major stakeholder in Nigerian football, Yes he failed in the past Afcon but please don’t belittle his personality, He has the right to air his view on anything involving Nigerian football.
Freedom of expression mate! You want to silence him???
