Osimhen’s arrival on Tuesday means only Turkey-based Bright Osayi is still being expected at the Lagos camp.
With Osimhen’s arrival on Tuesday, only Turkey-based Bright Osayi is still expected in Lagos ahead of the tricky tie against the Leone Stars.
This means the Super Eagles only need to avoid defeat at the Samuel Kanyon Doe Sports Complex in Monrovia on Sunday to confirm their place at the next AFCON tournament to be hosted by Cote d’Ivoire.Coach Peseiro is treading cautiously going into Sunday’s game, as he admits the Sierra Leonean team is not as easy to beat as many are wont to suggest.
“I think the last three matches against Sierra Leone, we won one time. There was a 4-4 draw. Everybody thinks it is easy, but it’s not,” Peseiro told reporters in Lagos.
