The Big Boss who was last week recalled to lead the national team after being previously relieved of same position went a step further to say Nigeria will even retain the title won 2013 in South Africa.

“We have the players who can do Nigeria proud in the remaining qualifier games and I know somehow we will make to the finals and retain our trophy” Keshi was quoted as saying in a press statement from ‘returning’ Eagles Media officer Ben Alaiya.

Sharing the same optimism with Coach Keshi is the Super Eagles Team Administrator; Dayo Enebi Achor who assured that Nigeria will at the end clinch one of the tickets for the Morocco 2015 Nations Cup. “The entire team is back now and we have to make a statement as the defending Champions. God will see us through”, the Eagles Scribe declared.

Currently, the Eagles are third in Group A and will need to beat Congo with a clear 2 goal margin or get a higher score line of victory than Congo got in Calabar to be ahead of the Red Devils in Group A after the November 15 clash.
