So no replacement for the injured players? What kind of sports administrators do we have. There’s no desire to build on the AFCON progress we had made! This is disappointing and shameful.
THEY SHOULD FIND REPLACEMENT FOR INJURY PLAYERS. INFACT THIS IS THE BEST TIME TO TEST RUN NEW PLAYERS IN CASE OF ANY INJURY AMONG THE TOP STARS.
IN 1994
** IROHA INJURED, MIKE-EMELANO TAKES OVER
** KESHI INJURED, CHIDI-NWANU TAKES OVER
** IKPEBA INJURED, AMUNEKE TAKES OVER
** SIASIA BENCHED, OKOCHA TAKES OVER
AND SURPRISEDLY, ALL PLAYERS THAT TOOK OVER FROM INJURED ONES, GREATLY, EXCEEDLY, TREMENDOUSLY, EXCELLENTLY DID WELL MORE THAN PEOPLE’S EXPECTATION.
Finidi, you are among the team then, teach them how your coach achieve that.
