Three changes have been made by the Super Eagles technical crew ahead of their match against Bafana Bafana in Cape Town

Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi is expected to make three changes to his starting line up when they take on South Africa on Wednesday evening in Cape Town.

Forwards Emmanuel Emenike and Gbolahan Salami will be joined by midfielder Nosa Igiebor as part of changes made from the defeat to Congo in Calabar on Saturday.

This means that Nnamdi Oduamadi, Uche Nwofor and Ramon Azeez will drop to the bench after a lackluster performance that saw the Super Eagles lose 3-2 to the Red Devils, their first home defeat in a qualifier in 33 years.

Salami, who plays for local side Warri Wolves, scored the second goal for Nigeria in Calabar after coming on as a substitute.

Bafana coach Shakes Mashaba has also made two changes to the squad that defeated Sudan 3-0 in Omdurman last Friday.

Keagan Dolly and Tokelo Rantie were dropped for this encounter, with Oupa Manyisa and Sibusiso Vilakazi taking their places respectively.

While a confident Bafana side will hope to get their first win against the Eagles in competitive football, the African champions will hope they don’t falter once more in their attempt to qualify for Morocco 2015.

South Africa XI: Senzo Meyiwa, Thulani Hlatshwayo, Anele Ngcongca, Erick Mathoho, Thabo Matlaba, Andile Jali, Dean Furman, Oupa Manyisa, Mandla Masango, Sibusiso Vilakazi and Bongani Ndulula.

The better side should win I am tired of this media tension.

This is better emenike came in too late against congo

Good

I care not about who starts,...All we want is a win to silence those mongoloids from the south

I hope dem go play well today..





Good luck boys.

iropelebe: This is better emenike came in too late against congo

.
Exactly, and I wonder why Keshi made such an error.
Anyway, I hope today will be better.

RIP S.A!! Those two are incredible HULKs

MIKEL MOST PLAY

itsIYKE: bcf

obamaobama: ,

What of the two Uche brothers that were invited? Kechi and his clueless tactics.

Make nigeria jst win 2day match, i don 2 insult and brag for supersport facebook page, guys no jst 4 ma hand

Ademolapaul: Good

yes our like button is back

Fly Eagles Fly.

the mistake keshi did in the last match was not putting Emenike from the beggining. i think we have a good chance of winning this match

What is d meaning of this

ichidodo: Bad news,no synergy between this two..

Like button is back, u guys should start, doing the needful

what about the two uches? I hope they both play today

and why in the name of everything-that-is-good is mikle in the team?

Oooh ma God, not Mikel again, that guy should just resign asap..............







Mikel insulting Jersey number 10 since 2010

We have no option than win today's match
Congo has 6 points already after a win against Sudan and SA will be having 6 if we mess up today. Zero points for Nigeria after today's match is a wrong place to be.

all i know is that RSA go beat us 2-1, with that baba suwe in goal,

Mikel Again?

Yes ooO

Sparrow13: yes our like button is back

Keshie has Done one good thing

We are waiting

Until mikel is not listed on the starting 11, I think we are still joking with raising a team we can be proud of! He needs to know dat he is a player whose position is aggressively contested. As a young soccer fan, I saw d numba 10 shirt as an exclusive reserve of soccer gods! It was so awe-inspiring dat even refrees favor dere very mistakes! Mikel Obi is d first numba 10 player whose performance will make a foetus in d womb desire snooker to football.He is just too damning to be so clothed!
