Omeruo Reclaims Eagles Shirt by solbase10(m): 10:07am On Nov 16, 2013
Chelsea defender Kenneth Omeruo is set to reclaim his place in the Eagles starting XI against Ethiopia today in Calabar.

Omeruo has been sidelined by a shoulder injury, which he suffered at the FIFA Confederations Cup in Brazil, and Warri Wolves skipper Azubuike Egwuekwe has deputised in his absence.

The 20-year-old Omeruo partnered Godfrey Oboabona when Nigeria won a third AFCON title in February.

Omeruo's change will effectively mean, Nigeria will start with an all-Europe-based cast.
Otherwise, it will be a familiar Eagles line-up by Keshi.

Stand-in skipper Vincent Enyeama, who has posted 11 clean sheets for his French Lique 1 side Lille this season, will retain his number 1 shirt against Ethiopia.

Full back positions will be manned by Celtic utility player Efe Ambrose and Elderson Echiejile.
Ogenyi Onazi will pair Mikel Obi in the heart of the midfield while Victor Moses and Ahmed Musa will take charge of the wings.

Emmanuel Emenike will again be given the license to shoot down Ethiopia, while Dynamo Kiev striker Brown Ideye will most likely combine with him in the attack.
