Keshi: I Liked How Super Eagles Played. by slap1(m): 6:58am On Sep 11, 2014 |
Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi says his side looked better against South Africa than in their defeat to Congo on Saturday. The Super Eagles failed to fire and managed to avoid a consecutive loss as they bid to qualify for Morocco 2015 and defend their African title. Almost a year to the date when they defeated Bafana to win the Nelson Mandela Challenge, Nigeria looked jaded as they failed to find the passes to open up their hosts, who played with greater cohesion and almost went ahead in the later stages. “The game was not bad, I thought it was very good tactical play and good play by Bafana,” said Keshi. “[There was] a little bit of improvement from my players. [It was] a lot better than what we did on Saturday. "We have not been together and it is taking time to gel. I’m not satisfied but I liked what I saw today.” Responding to questions about the inability of striker Emmanuel Emenike to fire, Keshi said the Fenerbahce man will soon hit form. “If a striker doesn't play well, it doesn’t mean he's not good. You see players in Europe who go 15 games without a goal, it doesn't mean he's not there. Emenike, I have to believe he is there. When he starts scoring he won't stop,” the coach said. “[For] three months we have not played together. He plays in a different team with a different style, we need to come together and start playing our normal game. “Hopefully by October we should be there. I'm happy with the performance today and I know it'd be much better as this is just 60% of our game.” |

Keshi has nothing to offer again. The situation will be worst on the 10th oct if he does not swallow his pride and Invite the right players that will bail him out as he lack tactics. |
