A statement Signed by the Media Team of the Chairman House Committee on Sports on Wednesday in Abuja reveals that the Nigeria Super Eagles have all the qualities to secure the needed wins in the two games; they just need to show it during the two games.
The Super Eagles will take on the Mediterranean Knights of Libya in Match Day three of the Qualifiers on Friday at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo before a return leg in Libya on Tuesday next week in Benghazi.
” I do not doubt that the boys will make us proud against Libya, especially going by the way they played in the last round of matches”.
” I was impressed with what I saw them play against the Benin Republic in Uyo and even the performance against Rwanda in Kigali was also very good despite the draw”.
” I am expecting them to step up that performance this Friday and continue from where they stopped in the last round of games “.
” I also want the players to know that as lawmakers, the National Assembly is fully behind them and the Speaker of the House, Honourable Tajudeen Abbas is always rooting for them to make Nigerians proud”, he added.
Nigeria currently tops her Africa Cup of Nations Qualification Group D with four points from two matches ahead of Friday’s tie with Libya.
