Former Nigerian winger Tijani Babangida says the strikers that Super Eagles head coach Augustine Eguavoen will call for the game against Ghana would determine if the team would make it to the world cup in Qatar or not.
Babangida maintains that Nigeria has a pool of talented attackers who are all in good form and the onus lies on Eguavoen to make the right choices for the double header next month.
“There is no doubt that the current strikers in the Super Eagles are not doing badly in the Europe. The likes of Osimhen, Ighalo, Sadiq and others are banging the goals for their respective clubs and it’s a sign of good things to come for the team.” Babangida told Complete Sports.
”Again, this will definitely give Eguavoen a serious headache in terms of who to select for the game against Ghana. If he gets the right strikers to start then the team will pick the ticket for Qatar.” He added
The Super Eagles will play as guest to the Black Stars on March 25, with the second leg slated for the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja four days later.
