Home Eagles dare Angola without support

Coach Steven Keshil training the Super Eagles in Abuja.

Despite the unstable socio-political situation in the country, the national team currently in camp preparing for the 2013 Nations Cup qualifier against Rwanda say they are battle ready to devour Angola in today’s international friendly.
They however would lack support of fans because of the on-going strike over petrol price that restricts movement.

For goalkeepers Chigozie Agbim and Godwin Paul, the game should serve as a test of character of the team and the coaching crew and that they will show against the Southern African country. “We have learnt a lot from this set of coaches and we must acquit ourselves well before every Nigerian today” declared Agbim.
Centre-half Azubuike Egwueke and pair mate Papa Idris, were also in war like mood. “This is my second time in the Eagles camp and I have not been drilled like this before, I have to prove to the world that we can hold our own against any team because at this moment we are the Nigerian national team”, Egwueke declared.
Idris on his own said: I have been impacted on positively by th technical crew and I will show it on the pitch against Angola today. Insha Allah, we shall come out victorious”, he said.
