* It’s our World Cup final, says Keshi
* It’s our World Cup final, says Keshi
Ahmed Musa and Kenneth Omeruo, were back fully in training Saturday
afternoon, after initial fears about their possible readiness for the
game against Spain Sunday.
The third player who was on the injury list, Nnamdi Oduamadi, was already 60 per cent ready as at press time.
He is expected to have a late fitness test Sunday morning ahead of the
game and indications are that he would be ready for the match.
Head Coach Stephen Keshi, who was happy with the cheery news, thanked
the medical crew for a job well done. He told the world's media that he
expects all his 22 players will be fit, while regretting the absence of
Lazio midfield man, Ogenyi Onazi, who was out due to injury prior to the
tournament.
The Eagles last training session at the venue of the game was mild and
easy as the coaching crew decided to take it easy with the players to
avoid any knocks.
Speaking after training, Keshi said the game is like a World Cup final
to the Eagles, as he expects his boys to take the fight to the World and
European champions.
“We respect Spain but we don’t fear them and I think as African
champions we deserve some respect ourselves, but we will give the game
our all and hope it would be enough to take us to the next stage of the
tournament."
