Welcome home guys… Rohr should maintain the line up against Brazil… Good Luck!
Expected 6 points in the bag by Sunday with maximum goals. Benin and Lesotho? Can the fixtures get any easier?
@Kel, let’s not underestimate oour opponents. Since July this year, Benin Republic have beaten Morocco and Ivory coast, drawn with Ghana, Togo, Cameroon and Guinea Bissau and Zambia. They have lost to Algeria and Senegal.
They are capable of a draw in Uyo and we will have to be at close to our best to beat them
No Country is a workover in football these days again. Every country is improving in
football. If you underestimate them, you do so at your perils.
Heracles Almelo star Cyriel Dessers has been named Whoscored.com’s Player of the Week in the Dutch Eredivisie following the conclusion of the matchday thirteen fixtures. The Leuven-born striker, who is willing to represent the Super Eagles, was the star of the show as Heracles Almelo humiliated VVV Venlo 6-1 at Stadion ErveAsito (Almelo) on Saturday. Dessers scored a 26-minute hat-trick in the second half and provided the assists for the goals scored by Alexander. Mr. Rohr should pls give Dessers a chance in the super eagles. With his current form he can be an asset to the team. He is better than paul onouchu
