Nigeria dares Cameroon in Brussels

The Super Eagles, who are still reeling from a 2-0 loss to DR Congo and the sensational retirement of erstwhile skipper, Vincent Enyeama will tonight face the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon  in Brussels.



Cameroon defeated Belgian league leaders KV Oostende 3-1 in a friendly on Thursday also in Belgium as both the Indomitable Lions and Nigeria prepare for 2018 World Cup qualifiers next month.



The Eagles are hard pressed for a result particularly after the disgraceful falling out between coach Sunday Oliseh and Enyeama as well as a shambolic four-time African champions.

“The most important thing (was) allowing the boys rest (after the game with DR Congo) and freshen up their minds.
“We have to take the positives from that defeat against Congo DR.
“We desperately need cover for the central defence position as the duo of Godfrey Oboa-bona and Kenneth Omeruo were badly missed in the defeat to Congo DR.
“We are building and we are getting more and more players buy into our philosophy and the cohesion is getting better,” he said. Oliseh has so far managed three games as Nigeria coach and has masterminded one win, one draw and one defeat.
