After a very trying game against Ethiopia, which the Super Eagles won by two goals, which tips them to meet Nations Cup trophy favourites, Ivory Coast, coach of the Nigerian side, Stephen Okechukwu Keshi, has opened up on the sunday game, saying,
"Now we face title favourites Ivory Coast. I have a game plan but that is for the players."
Star midfielder John Obi Mikel too had this to say after the Ethiopia match,
"We knew they [Ethiopia] were coming looking to win the
game as well, they were very organised in the middle and we
tried to make sure we didn't play in the middle. All throughout the game
it was tough."
When asked about an outstanding player in the game against Ethiopia, Keshi said, "I thought Sunday Mba was outstanding in
midfield and his introduction is part of my plan to build a team around
young players, and senior players like captain Joseph Yobo, vice-captain
Victor Enyeama and John Obi Mikel".
