Paseiro and Finidi really did us dirty with that hole draw against Lesotho (Paseiro) and South Africa (Finidi), and particularly the loss to Benin on neutral ground (Finidi).
Even Eguavoen would’ have done better than Finidi, who shouldn’t have taken the job in the first place. Eguavoen won’t chalk up just a single point from a possible 6. Finidi simply made a complete mess of an already bad situation.
Hopefully Chelle is able to salvage the group for us again. Beating Rwanda away on March 21 IS A MUST. All our elite players must be 100% fit.
The Okocha, Kanu set used to go away to beat teams 4-0 away when situations get precarious this way. It’s time for this SE set to man up and be counted.
why not Saturday?no time to prepare
Super eagles will come out victorious
YES WE HAVE THE PLAYERS AND A NICE COACH. BUT IT WAS REVEALED SINCE THE SUPER WILL NOT QUALIFER FOR THIS WORLD CUP. BUT TO REVEAL IS TO REVERSE.
