Ex Nigeria midfielder, Mutiu Adepoju has come out to beg the Super Eagles to perform better vs Tunisia in Tuesday’s international friendly encounter in Austria.
This is coming after the dismal showing from the Super Eagles vs Algeria days ago.
According to Mutiu, these are top-notch friendlies that Nigeria should be taking advantage of because the team definitely has the potential to beat African giants.
He added that he wants Nigeria to take the match against Tunisia with all seriousness as it will be bad for the nation to lose two games in a row.
His words, “They are top-notch friendlies. We saw Algeria what they did, they are the African champions and Tunisia are a very good team as well,”
“I want them to take the match against Tunisia with all seriousness because it won’t be nice for Nigeria to lose two games in a row, it is going to affect our Fifa ranking.
“I’m very sure the players will do everything possible and we’re going to see a better performance on Tuesday.”
“It was a below par performance,”
“I believe the Super Eagles have more potential and they can play better than what we saw against Algeria.
“I will not write the team off, probably because of the situation at the moment, and in that game I believe they have players who have not blended together. Nevertheless, I believe the game against Tunisia will be better.
“In a team, the performance of the entire group is very important and I do not want to focus on personal ratings. I believe it’s a team game which every player needs to be up and doing.”
