Nduka Promises To Make Nigeria Proud Ahead of CHAN Game With Senegal
Home-based Super Eagles defender Junior Nduka has promised to give his all for Nigeria as the team prepares to clash with Senegal on Tuesday in the CAF African Nations Championship (CHAN) group stage. The Remo Stars player expressed confidence in the squad and said they’re determined to make the country proud, just like the D’Tigress and Super Falcons recently did.
The D’Tigress claimed the AfroBasket title after a strong win against Mali in the final held in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, while the Super Falcons edged out Morocco 3-2 to lift the WAFCON trophy.
Speaking during a press briefing in Zanzibar ahead of the match, Nduka said, “Nigerians expect a lot from us, especially with the way our athletes have been performing across different sports. We’ll do our best to build on that success and not disappoint them.”
He added that the recent victories by the women’s basketball and football teams are a motivation, and the team is fired up to bring more joy to the country.
Head coach of Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone, speaks on team defense and called out a player who needs to toughen up. He shared that Ademola Lookman needs to work on defense.
“Ademola Lookman arrived with great enthusiasm and desire to keep growing. We need him to add defensive work to what he already gives us offensively, because he has that ability,” he then added.
“He’s shown it with the Nigeria national team, and we need him in that role.”
Former football legend Paul Merson states that Mohammad Salah is the greatest winger of all time.
While also praising Bukayo Saka for being the winger in form right now.
When asked in a recent interview, he stated “For the best right now, it’s probably [Bukayo] Saka for his all-around game. I will go Salah, because the numbers he’s put up are ridiculous.”
Former player Paul Merson shares his predictions on this weekend’s Premier League games.
He shared Leeds United vs Manchester City – Prediction: Leeds 1-1 Manchester City.
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace – Prediction: Manchester United 3-0 Crystal Palace.
Arsenal vs Chelsea – Prediction: Arsenal 1-0 Chelsea.
