The Super
Eagles camp at the Bolton White Apartment flung open on Sunday afternoon
and as
has become the tradition, home-based skipper Chigozie Agbim was the
first to
hit camp.
At the last count almost all the invited players had
arrived
camp and
it was good to see by the manner of order given by Head Coach, Stephen
Keshi.
As
expected, Head Coach, Keshi was already on ground welcoming his players
and
training is expected to resume on Monday morning at the training pitch
of the
National Stadium in Abuja.
There has been no case of poor attendance in
camp
and that is why the team handlers have decided that training will resume
on
Monday morning.
The next
phase of the team’s camping will be when the foreign based players
arrive for
the trip to the match venue in Calabar, Cross River State and there have
been
talks of the team leaving Abuja in one piece ahead of the encounter,
going by
the interest the match has generated among Nigerians.
Agbim, who
led the 23 home based stars to camp has assured that the team is in the
right
frame of mind for the game against the Lone Star of Liberia, declaring
that the
strength of the team can only improve when the foreign based players
arrive.
“We
can handle the pressure, because we have been doing that but both home
and
foreign based players have a singular goal and that is the ticket for
the
Nations Cup in South Africa.
