We need to focus on the game against Congo whether or not there's crisis in Nigeria-Keshi


To avoid FIFA ultimatum of kicking Nigeria out of world sport,as posed by the World foot ball govrning body,the Nigerian sport team has come out in readiness to crush Congo Brazzaville in the AFCON qualifier match taking place today in Calabar,Nigeria.
So far,The Super Eagles have been speaking with confidence ahead of today’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match against the Red Devils of Congo Brazzaville at the UJ Esuene Stadium in the city of Calabar, the capital of Cross River State. Some of the players that spoke in separate interviews vowed to defy the crisis currently rocking the nation’s foot­ball administration as well as the dreaded Ebola virus epidemic in some African countries,
with Congo Brazzaville among the worst hit, to ensure victory for Nigeria and set the part to a successful defence of the ti­tle they won last year in South Africa in Morocco next year.

some of those who came out to speak were; Kenneth Omeruo  who said “they are all aware of the  crisis, but are all focused on playing to make Nigerians proud. saying "We lack no support and so we won’t bother ourselves with such matters, as long they don’t affect us".  adding that“We have the usual support of Nigerians So our attention is on defending our Nations Cup title and that starts against Congo,” “I’m happy to be back to the team.
Trying to give us the secret behind their winning grace last time, Middles­brough FC of England  star revealed "We all know why we are here. It’s the qualifiers for the Nations Cup and our defense of the title we won in 2013 begins on Saturday (today). We are prepared for the game and anxious to win. “It’s team work and everyone is fo­cused on ensuring we earn a remark­able start to our title defence against Congo on Saturday (today).

Adding to that was Ahmed Musa  of CSKA Mos­cow, Russia  saying the same thing that“We already know ourselves and we know that we will win on Sat­urday (today). Nigerians need not worry. We are playing at home and I don’t think we are here to lose at home. On Saturday (today), the bet­ter side will win. “I can tell you that we are prepared and we know Nigerians want us to succeed. With the caliber of play­ers we have in camp, the match will come and go with victory on our side. All the players are in high spirit and we are all determined to give our best on Saturday (today)”. Efe Ambrose (Celtic Glasgow FC, Scotland) “I am here to help my country sur­mount whatever huddle the Congo­lese may pose.  we will make Nigerians happy so that we will right so many things that are wrong.

But,Super Eagles striker Emmanuel Emenike  is kind of pessimistic,thus  told AfricanFootball.com that,Congo could be very dangerous on Saturday because they do not have anything to lose against the African champions. Nigeria adding that,“Being the defending champions could make it tough for us and the Congolese have nothing to lose,”

As for the Eagle's Boss,all he's sying  “Please don’t let us talk about the crisis in Nigerian football administra­tion. We need to focus on the game against Congo (Brazzaville) and that’s what we’re doing. We shall do our best to win the match on Saturday because that would give us the confidence to go to South Af­rica to face the Bafana Bafana on Tuesday next week”.

...good luck to the eagles!!!
