Soweto, South Africa, (AFP) –Nigeria’s star winger Victor Moses reportedly starts Sunday’s Africa Cup of Nations final after overcoming an ankle injury, but leading scorer Emmanuel Emenike is on the bench.
According to mtnfootball.com, Moses has overcome the injury he picked up in Wednesday’s semi-final win over Mali.
But in-form Spartak Moscow striker Emenike, who suffered a more serious hamstring problem in the same match, has failed to make Stephen Keshi’s starting XI, with Ikechukwu Uche reportedly taking his place.
Emenike is joint top scorer in South Africa on four goalswith Mubarak Wakaso of Ghana.

Na wah oooo

Ike Uche will do the job.

In fact I suspect Emenike may be overplaying the injury slightly to allow Ike to play, as they are paddies.
