Japan ’93 FIFA Under-17 World Cup winner, Festus Odini, in an exclusive interview with Complete Sports has backed the Super Eagles to beat the Carthage Eagles of Tunisia in their next friendly on Tuesday.
Odini insists the Gernot Rohr’s team must step up and play with a better mentality after a poor approach in their 1-0 defeat to the Desert Foxes of Algeria on Friday.
How will you access the Nigeria vs Algeria game?
I didn’t see the game but from what I heard, it is not a good result for a team that is preparing for the AFCON qualifiers in November. For
the players and the country as a whole, the result wasn’t encouraging.
the players and the country as a whole, the result wasn’t encouraging.
Everything boils down to the coach because he will get sacked when things go wrong. The coach should try and have a really balanced team.
You can lose but the way you lose matters a lot. If you lose and your team did not play well, that means you are having two problems.
Gernot Rohr has been there since 2016, don’t you think he should have had a balanced team four years after?
He should have known his first team by now. He should not be overhauling his team every now and then. Now, it’s like he is just going back.
It appears that without Victor Osimhen, the Super Eagles can’t score goals. Are you impressed with Paul Onuachu?
I think Onuachu needs to do more. He is delivering at his club, Genk and then, he should also do the same thing for Nigeria. Onuachu has the quality to give Osimhen a very good competition, but I think he needs to step up his game.
Ahead of the Super Eagles friendly against Tunisia on Tuesday, what advice do you have for the players?
They should try and redeem themselves with a very good performance against Tunisa on Tuesday, and they should also try and make Nigerians smile with victory because we don’t see it as a friendly. We cannot be playing and be losing like that.
Can the Super Eagles beat Tunisia?
Yes, we can, I believe we can win. The boys should go with the right approach and also play the game with the right mentality, and then they can win.

Joe Gomez: Liverpool Defender Out For 'significant Part' Of Season After Surgery
~1.4 mins read
Liverpool defender Joe Gomez has had surgery on a knee injury and is "likely" to miss a "significant part" of the rest of season, the club says.
Gomez was injured on Wednesday while training with England before Thursday's friendly with the Republic of Ireland.
The 23-year-old's club said he had undergone "successful" surgery to repair a tendon in his left knee.
The Reds are already without fellow centre-back Virgil van Dijk because of a long-term knee ligament injury.
"The issue was isolated to Gomez's tendon, with no damage to any other associated knee ligaments," Liverpool said.
"No timescale is being placed upon his return, though the issue is likely to rule him out for a significant part of the remainder of 2020-21."
Gomez has played in all but one of Liverpool's Premier League and Champions League games this season.
The injury is not the same as the cruciate ligament injury he suffered in 2015.
England manager Gareth Southgate said the injury was "probably a consequence of the number of games that have been played".
"We are always for player welfare and to lose a player in the way that we did yesterday, it was really tragic for the boy," he told ITV.
"There needs to be a look at the calendar."
Van Dijk has had surgery on the knee ligament injury he picked up against Everton in a 2-2 draw on 17 October.
The Premier League champions have also been without Fabinho, who had been deputising in defence for Van Dijk, because of a hamstring injury.
Additionally, Liverpool have an injury concern over right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold, who was taken off during the 1-1 draw at Manchester City on Sunday and withdrawn from England duty.
