Head coach of the Super Eagles, Gernot Rohr, has said that he is eyeing a win against Algeria, even though his team has already qualified for the 2018 World Cup.
Nigeria became the first African nation to qualify for next year’s tournament in Russia, after a 1-0 win over Zambia in Uyo.
However, Rohr insists he will take the game against Algeria seriously, but will also give a lot of players a chance to prove themselves.
It means players like John Ogu, Oghenekaro Etebo, Kelechi Iheanacho, Anthony Nwakaeme, etc could start against the North Africans.
“We never go to a match with second team, we want to win our last match as well. At least not to lose so we can qualify without losing any game.
“It will be wonderful, this is another challenge but I think we will play a second friendly game perhaps in Morocco to see all the players who couldn’t play in our previous games,” Rohr said.
