The Technical Advisor of the Nigerian national team, Augustine Eguavoen is says he’s unfazed by the Ghana challenge ahead of the FIFA World Cup play-offs between the two countries.
Black Stars will hosts the Super Eagles on March 24 before the second leg in Abuja three days later, with the winner of the two legged encounter qualifying for the World Cup in Qatar later this year.
But according to the Super Eagles coach, Eguavoen, his main headache is not the game but the pool of talents to pick from to represent the three time champions is his biggest headache.
“It is always an honour to serve the country. I was impressed with the high level of discipline and commitment of the players at the AFCON in Cameroon, and I feel privileged to lead the group,” he said during a zoom call with the team and the country’s Sports Ministry.
“We have two tough games against Ghana next month but I am not too worried because we have a squad that knows it is a mountain that we have to climb. We have a good headache to deal with – which is a surplus of good players. I want to thank the Government and the NFF for all the support during the AFCON; we will need even greater support for the World Cup play-off,” he added.
