Former Super Eagles striker Jonathan Akpoborie has advised coach Augustine Eguavoen ahead of the world cup qualifying play off first leg with Ghana.
The ex Wolfsburg attacker insists the first leg in Ghana is the real deal and Eguavoen must get things right as the return leg in Abuja could be of no importance.
“The first of the 2022 World Cup qualifying playoff against Ghana in Accra could determine the fate of both teams in their quest to pick the ticket.” Akpoborie told Complete Sports
” I know the players knows the importance of the game, however, I will urge Eguavoen to select players that are ready to sacrifice their legs against Ghana.”
“The second leg may be a formality for the team if the Super Eagles pick the right result. I am confident the players won’t disappoint.” He added.
Ghana will host Nigeria on March 25 with the return leg slated for Abuja in four days time.
