Super Eagles’ Head Coach, Sunday Oliseh, will
return to the country next week, as preparations
hit top gear for next month’s 2017 Africa Cup of
Nations qualifying match against Tanzania in Dar
es Salaam.
The former Super Eagles’ captain is presently in
the United Kingdom with his assistant, Jean
Francois Loscuito, having a number of meetings
with senior Nigerian internationals in that
country are on-going.
Oliseh, officially presented on July 15, has
assured that he is already working assiduously
towards raising a solid squad to pick up three
vital points from East Africa in four-and-half
weeks’ time.
“The match in Dar es Salaam is very, very
crucial, not only because it will be my first
match as Head Coach, but also because we
have no choice than to win. The three points are
important for us to keep up the tempo in our
group.
“We are on the same three points with Egypt,
though they have scored a goal more. That is
why we cannot afford any slip along the way. We
will deal first with the match in Tanzania, and
then we will start thinking about the CHAN
qualifiers with Burkina Faso in October, and then
the World Cup qualifying fixture in November.
There is a lot of work. After these matches, we
will now start working towards the two AFCON
qualifying matches we have with the Pharaohs in
March next year.....
