By Daily Sports Nigeria on March 8, 2022

Historic member and youngest player in 1980 Africa Cup of Nations victorious team, Henry Nwosu (MON) has unequivocally commended the leadership roles both the NFF executive committee led by Amaju Pinnick and Sports Minister, Sunday Dare for their unrelenting efforts so far in monitoring and keeping closely in torch with the Super Eagles technical crew and the players to ensure everyone is on the same page toward the titanic football playoff between Ghana and Nigeria first leg in Accra on March 25 and return leg in Abuja three days later.

Nwosu who spoke to Daily Sports exclusively from his country home, Naze near Owerri believes that there is no room for anything other than victory. He posited that NFF and Sports Minister have set the tone that has giving the atmosphere more relaxed and reassuring. There is no tension rather the setting is one that begets concentration and focus on the task ahead, he observed.

Nwosu observed further that the build up has been encouraging and urged the technical crew led by Austin Eguaveon to build a strong synergy that will translate into a suicide squad that would be too difficult for the Black Stars team to handle.

According to him it won’t business as usual game. No doubt it will be an envisaged very difficult game and so nothing must be left for chance. He implore them to ensure players are chose on current form including involving tighter strategy that his Ghanaian opposition number won’t easier understand until the damage has been done right there in front of their fans. He reminded that the match would full of caution, vigilance and full of expectations from both teams.

“As preparations are tense from both sides, the high tension associated with such grudge football encounter will reach its feverish height as the counter down looms. Therefore the onions are on the Nigerian coaches and players to resolve to embrace this naked reality headlong. There will be dull moment in both legs however the Nigerians have to take the game as it comes.

Ghana has been in the news on how they are going about the entire build up and there won’t any excuse from Nigeria judging from the way and manner NFF high command and Sports Minister have been working hands in gloves geared towards achieving superlative outings. These efforts must be complimented with sterling posting,” Nwosu appealed

He emphatically said that Eguaveon, Amuneke, Agu and Yobo have faced Ghana in the past and so must not be told the kind of sacrifice are extended whenever football of any colour whether stakes are high like this pending World Cup playoff involve both countries how serious all parties take it. Already it has been ruling every media space showing it is no child’s play.

“My belief remains that the Nigerian representatives knew what is on ground and how Nigerians need this ticket to Qatar in November 2022 World Cup football summit. All hands are already on deck and so with determination, focus, zeal, concentration, patriotism and sundry this obvious envisaged very difficult match would be half won,” he counseled.

He further thumbed up the coaches on the quality of provisional list of players already in the public domain and urged them to put their eyes on the ball to do superlative selection of our true first eleven based on current form and output. He also noted that the coming of some first rate players that missed the AFCON 2021 in Cameroon as welcome and called on the players to see their mission as national assignment.
