Super Eagles Lineup For Guinea-Bissau Game – Iheanacho Gets First Taste Of Action At AFCON

Advertisements

Head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Jose Peseiro will make changes to his team that defeated Ivory Coast 1-0 when they take on Guinea-Bissau in their final group game at the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), OwnGoalNigeria.com can exclusively reveal.

Peseiro has so far used two different formations in the two games the team has played so far at the tournament, he has also altered his line up for both games. He will repeat the same act in their game against the wild dogs.

One of the areas he will make a decision on is the right wing , where he has started two different players in their first two games of the tournament. Moses Simon started there in the 1-1 draw against Equatorial Guinea while Samuel Chukwueze was the man on the right against the Ivorians.

There could be a change in the same position for the third consecutive game with Kelechi Iheanacho who is back to full match fitness expected to take the spot tomorrow. He has played in that role in the last three games he has played for the senior national team of Nigeria.

One thing that is certain is that he will definitely play tomorrow and on the right, but at this time of this report it is unclear if he will start or come in as a substitute. For now Peseiro is pondering on making just two changes to the team that defeated Ivory Coast.

Calvin Bassey could likely drop out for an extra man in midfield likely to be Joe Aribo, who has been sparingly used so far and it is said he is unhappy with his limited game time.
