Eagles captain sure of victory vs Kenya Super Eagles captain,Joseph Yobo has urged the team to go all out for victory tomorrow in the FIFA 2014 World Cup qualifying game against the Harambee Stars of Kenya at the U.J Esuene stadium in Calabar.
.
The Fenerbahce of Turkey defender who led the Eagles to their third AFCON victory last month in South Africa wants the team to prove their AFCON feat didn't come by happenstance.
.
'I am urging the boys to go all out and ensure they beat the Harambee Stars and maintain leadership of the group.I want them to play like the champions that they are and continue to make Nigerians happy.I know the team is capable of not only beating Kenya but also qualifying for next year's World Cup in Brazil.So I want them to stay focussed and not feel winning the AFCON trophy is the ultimate'',said the former Everton of England star who has been a rock for his Turkish side especially in the Europa League where they have qualified for the quarter-finals.
.
Yobo,who has played in all his club's games since the AFCON ended early February says the team should be able to cope in his absence.
.
'I believe the boys will cope without me.I am still a strong part of them and I know the experienced players in the team will provide the leadership they will be needng on and off the field of play to win the game against Kenya.They know they are playing for over 150 million Nigerians and cannot afford to disappoint'',he said and also praised the technical crew for letting the team know that the AFCON party is over".
