Must read

< 1 mn read

AS THE SUPER EAGLES PREPARE TO FACE RWANDA IN THEIR AFCON 2025 QUALIFIER, INTERIM COACH AUGUSTINE EGUAVOEN HAS OFFERED A STRAIGHTFORWARD ASSESSMENT OF THEIR STRATEGY.

SPEAKING TO THE MEDIA IN KIGALI, WHERE THE TEAM HAS ALREADY ARRIVED FOR THE CRUCIAL MATCH ON TUESDAY, EGUAVOEN CLARIFIED THAT THERE IS NO COMPLICATED GAME PLAN IN PLACE.

EGUAVOEN’S DIRECT APPROACH

“THERE IS NO GAME PLAN. THE PLAN IS THE THREE POINTS,” THE FORMER INTERNATIONAL DEFENDER STATED, AS REPORTED BY THE NFF’S SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNT.

THIS NO-NONSENSE ATTITUDE REFLECTS EGUAVOEN’S FOCUS ON SECURING A POSITIVE RESULT, RATHER THAN OVER-ANALYSING THE OPPOSITION AHEAD OF THE ALL-IMPORTANT MATCH.

SUPER EAGLES LOOK TO BUILD ON WIN

NIGERIA WILL BE LOOKING TO BUILD ON THEIR IMPRESSIVE 3-0 VICTORY OVER BENIN REPUBLIC IN EGUAVOEN’S FIRST MATCH IN CHARGE, WHICH TOOK PLACE ON SATURDAY IN UYO. ATALANTA’S ADEMOLE LOOKMAN, WHO SCORED A BRACE, AND VICTOR OSIMHEN WERE THE STANDOUT PERFORMERS AND SCORERS IN THAT CONVINCING WIN.

THE SUPER EAGLES NOW AIM TO MAKE IT TWO WINS FROM TWO AFCON 2025 QUALIFIERS AS THEY TRAVEL TO FACE RWANDA’S AMAVUBI IN KIGALI.

EGUAVOEN’S STRAIGHT-TALKING STYLE

EGUAVOEN’S UNWAVERING DETERMINATION TO SECURE ALL THREE POINTS WILL NO DOUBT BE COMMUNICATED TO THE PLAYERS AS THEY PREPARE FOR THE CHALLENGE AHEAD. THIS STRAIGHT-TALKING APPROACH IS A REFRESHING DEPARTURE FROM THE SOMETIMES OVER-CAUTIOUS MINDSET THAT HAS PLAGUED THE SUPER EAGLES IN THE PAST.

NIGERIANS WILL BE KEEN TO SEE IF EGUAVOEN’S NO-FRILLS MENTALITY CAN TRANSLATE INTO ANOTHER POSITIVE RESULT FOR THE SUPER EAGLES AS THEY TAKE ON RWANDA IN KIGALI ON TUESDAY.
