The South Africa tie is always that kind of match where bragging right is everything, it will serve as a big motivating factor for both teams, especially for the Super Eagles because we lost the first match in our home soil .
We need to redeem our image in the second leg in South Africa by making it happen for us.

I know the team are a little different now but we will take pride in getting revenge this time against the Bafana Bafana.
We have a squad of good and talented young players who can turn things around, they have that ability make things right.
But our issues as Nigerians is the problem of automatic fulfillment of our great our expectations.
