Super Eagles strikers Ahmed Musa and Odion Ighalo are in good scoring
form for their respective clubs ahead of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations
qualification match on October 12 in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.
Ahmed Musa
And coach Gernot Rohr is hopeful that his wards will deliver when it
matters against the Mediterranean Knights whom they need to overhaul in
the double-header, and put themselves in a commanding position in the
group E qualifiers.
Musa scored his forth goal of the season for Al Nassr FC of Saudi
Arabia, in their 5-1 win over Al Hazm on Friday. Musa has shown some
consistency in front of goal in recent times, scoring 7 goals in his
last 10 competitive games for both club and country.
Ighalo has been on fire in the Chinese league and he help his club
Changchun Yatai with a brace in their 3-3 draw against John Obi Mikel’s
Tianjin Teda in Saturday’s Chinese Super League game. Ighalo has scored
20 goals this season.
“We have two crucial games against Libya. It’s crucial that we get
positive results over the two legs and try to qualify for the
competition as early as possible,” Rohr said.
“Any of the invited players can get the job done as we enter the crucial bend of the qualification for AFCON,” he added.
