Nigeria Football Federation’s board member, Chris Green, has called on fans to back head coach of the Super Eagles, Sunday Oliseh, saying that he is yet to have his dream team.
Green was speaking after the Eagles were held to a 0-0 by Swaziland, in a 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier on Friday in Mbanbane.
“Even though I didn’t see the game, I guess it was drab,” he told CompleteSports.
“We are building. A lot of damage was done to this team before Oliseh took over. We must pray for a brilliant result in Port Harcourt so that if for nothing, it will bolster the confidence of the team.”
The Rivers State FA boss, also called for patience, as Oliseh tries to figure out his best players.
“We actually must be patient with Oliseh, to try out certain players to see if they will come good and get some understanding. Let’s encourage good working relationship between Oliseh and Amodu. They can take us back to the zenith.
“Believe me, Oliseh is very knowledgeable,” Green concluded.
The return leg match against Swaziland, will be played on Tuesday in Port Harcourt.
