South Africa: Uyo choice thrills Rohr

By Daily Sports on June 7, 2017

Super Eagles coach, Gernot Rohr has set his sights on a win over South Africa in Saturday's 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) qualifier in Uyo.

Rohr acknowledges that the clash with the 1996 Afcon champions will be tough but is hoping to mastermind a win for Nigerians over their bitter rivals.

"Yes, we are happy to be here in Uyo. We like this place," Rohr told journalists in Uyo on Tuesday.

"We won our last (two) games here so I hope this (game versus South Africa) will be a third victory.

"We'll start our training immediately.

"If (Nigeria) is to qualify for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon), It will be a fantastic adventure,” he said.
