Gernot Rohr feels competition between Ikechukwu Ezenwa and Daniel Akpeyi can drive Nigeria towards victory against Zambia.
A win or draw for the Super Eagles against the south Africans on Saturday will hand them a 2018 Fifa World Cup Russia ticket with a game to spare.
Ezenwa’s first-rate performance against Cameroon threatened Akpeyi’s place in the team as the FC Ifeanyi Ubah man also did well at Wafu Cup of Nations in Ghana – where he was named tournament’s best goalkeeper.
But Rohr maintains that a good relationship between the duo and any friendly rivalry will benefit a quest for victory.
“We have worked very hard on that, we have two goalkeeper coaches and what I saw in [Tuesday’s training] session was very good,” Rohr said.
“[Ikechukwu] Ezenwa did very well, [Daniel] Akpeyi is coming back. So, there is competition and that is very good for the team.
This competition is very fair also and we [the technical crew] welcome that,” Rohr noted. (GOAL)
