Former International, Henry Nwosu ,
has expressed optimism that the Super
Eagles will beat the Chipolopolo of
Zambia provided Coach Gernot Rohr
field players with character and their
opponent on Saturday .
The Eagles , who currently top the Group
B World Cup African qualifier match ,
are in the driving seat of sealing a place
in next year ’s Mundial holding in
Russia, if things go well according to
plans. The game holds on October 7 , at
the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo ,
Akwa Ibom .
Nwosu, a onetime captain of the senior
national, advised the team not to be
carried away and ensure a victory , in a
repeat of the 2 - 1 win inflicted on the
Zambians right in their backyard.
“ Eagles should not be clueless in the
game , they should be ready to give their
all so that we will not have any reason
to regret . I believe we have a very good
team that can beat the Zambians . If we
can beat them at home, we should be
able to repeat it again on Saturday I do
not see that as a problem as against fear
of many .
The former coach of the Under - 17
national team, further said that “ But I
want to believe that Rohr already knows
what he wants in the players that will
help him qualify the nation for the
World Cup . “ But in my view , I think he
should go for players that are very
determined . Eagles that will that will
play their heart out and will not be
afraid to make incursion when
necessary.
“ Thank God that most of the Zambian
players are home - based and this might
affect them psychologically, as
inferiority complex may set in . I want
to believe that the coach has done a
very good job so far. On our part , let us
pray for them and at the end victory
will surely be ours,” he said assuredly.
Also, former Eagles defender, Isaac
Semitoje , in a chat with The Guardian
equally expressed confidence in the
Eagles achieving the vital victory over
the Chipolopolo , adding that he believes
that the team is hungrier than the
Zambians. “ I strongly have belief in the
team that the boys will deliver . Though ,
I am not writing the Zambia side off ,
but I think we need the victory more
than them , ” he said .
