Putin’s army fail to shoot down Eagles in Moscow

By Ifeanyi Eduzor

The Super Eagles continued their fine run under Eric Chelle as they forced Russia to a 1-1 today in Moscow.

The fiercely fought battle was one in which Russia took the lead in the first half no thanks to an own goal.

The Eagles fought back in the second half with Belgium based Arokodare capitalizing on a defensive blunder by the hosts to slot in the equalizer in the 70th minute.

The encounter was one in which Super Eagles second choice keeper Maduka Okoye made a good number of impressive saves.
