Super
Eagles captain, Joseph Yobo, says he is happy at renewing the rivalry
between himself and Mali captain, Seydou Keita, which dates back to the
years when both of them featured for their countries at the U20 level.
“That is a long time now and its amazing
that the world still remembers but really records matter little to me, I
just want the team to do well, but I’m happy that after several years
both of us are still playing active football and are the captains of our
national teams,” Yobo said on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Nigerian musician, Flavour,
who was in the stands when the Eagles shocked Ivory Coast in the
quarter-final clash on Sunday, has said he expects the Super Eagles
striker and a personal friend of his, Emmanuel Emenike, to score more
goals and power the country to the title.
Emenike has so far scored three goals for Nigeria in the running for the top scorer’s award.
Flavour is again expected in the stands to cheer his friend on Wednesday at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban, South Africa.
