Tonight – Cameroon on our mind! By Dr. Olusegun Odegbami

To defeat Cameroon is a task that must be done. It is not going to be a piece of cake, but the Eagles are prepared and the job will be done!

For the first time ever, Finidi George, the one who stepped into my shoes when I stepped aside from my football career, and I met for a brief but proper conversation in the Super Eagles’ camp at Pullman Hotel. He is, of course, one of the assistant coaches working with Jose Peseiro.

Jay Jay Okocha joined us as we stood in the corridor and discussed the prospects of ‘the battle of Abidjan’ tomorrow night!

We came off with the consensus and conviction that it will not be easy but the Eagles will conquer!
