Stoke City striker Osaze Odemwingie and Almeria
midfielder Ramon Azeez may not see action in
Saturday’s crucial World Cup Group F clash
against Bosnia-Herzegovina, africanfootball.com
has learned.
Osaze brought some urgency and creativity to the
Super Eagles’ attack against Iran on Monday, but
Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi said the former
Russia-based forward defied his instructions even
though he was playing an unfamiliar role.
Keshi is said to be disappointed with Azeez’s
performance against Iran and has lined up
Belgium-based Michael Uchebo to take his place.
Skipper Joseph Yobo is expected to keep his place
in the first team after Turkey-based defender
Godfrey Oboabona was ruled out of Saturday’s
cracker as a result of a foot injury he suffered
against Iran.
Yobo told africanfootball.com in Brazil that
reaching a century of international caps would be
an added bonus for him as he was already fulfilled
to be at his third World Cup.
“I’m just happy that I made it here because towards
the end of the season I got injured and it was
difficult for me,” he said.
“Any other personal achievement will be great and
I will enjoy it.”
