Egbe throws weight behind NFF, Rohr

.Says Eagles’ll get better with time

By George Aluo

FIFA match agent and stadiums facility expert, Ebi Egbe says there is nothing to worry over Super Eagles 0-1 loss to reigning African champions Algeria, friday night in Austria.

Egbe who is the Chief Executive Officer of Africa’s leading stadium construction outfit, Monimichelle Group said international friendlies are played ostensibly to make a team see her weaknesses and how to work on them.

He noted that the game against Algeria would definitely have given Rohr an insight into what to do ahead of the AFCON and World Cup qualifiers, even as he said coming hard on the team would make the players lose confidence in themselves.

“We need to encourage the team…this is not the time to write them off as it would not help us. Rohr and his boys need the support and encouragement of Nigerians. The NFF has on its part done well by putting quality friendlies together for Rohr to test out new players. I m happy the era when Nigeria was not part of the action during FIFA international break is gone. Kudos must go to the Amaju Pinnick led board for turning things around,” Egbe said.

Egbe stressed that he is confident Nigerians would see the real Super Eagles when Nigeria faces Sierra Leone next month in the home and away AFCON qualifiers.

The Eagles are billed to take on Tunisia on Tuesday in another friendly during the 10-day FIFA approved international break.
