Siasia
Former president of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Aminu Maigari, has called on fans to support interim coach of the Super Eagles, Samson Siasia, ahead of their AFCON 2017 qualifying double header against Egypt.
Maigari believes Siasia has what it takes to lead the team to victory against the Pharoahs, but added that he will not be able to do it alone.
“It is going to be a very tough encounter as the Egyptians are desperate to make a return to the AFCON after missing the last three, but Nigeria are also desirous of being in Gabon after missing out at the last edition in Equatorial Guinea and will not compromise victory in this first leg tie in Kaduna,” Maigari told Completesportsnigeria.com.
“My advise to Siasia is to select players who are ready to fight all through the game whether they are foreign based or home boys. He should remove sentiment in team selection and must get his tactics right to beat the Egypt. They will come with all kinds of antics to frustrate the Super Eagles and get a result in the first leg.”
