Super Eagles coach, Gernot Rohr, has
revealed his starting line-up for
tonight’s international friendly against
Senegal at The Hive Stadium in London.
According to the list, Rohr appears to
stick to his trusted defensive line of Carl
Ikeme in goal, Kenneth Omeruo at right-
back, Leon Balogun and William Troost
Ekong partnering in the heart of the
defence while Elderson Echiejile will
start at left-back.
In the midfield, Ogenyi Onazi, Wilfred
Ndidi and Oghenekaro Etebo are
expected to feature prominently; while
in the line of attack, Kelechi Iheanacho
and Alex Iwobi will play up front while it
remains to be seen if Ahmed Musa who
failed to start the last three games
under Gernot Rohr will get the nod
ahead of Moses Simon.
All of Rohr’s new call-ups will be
handed substitute role; and they are;
Tyronne Ebuehi, Noah Bazee, Kayode
Olanrewaju and Isaac Success.
The match is scheduled to kick off at
8pm (9pm Nigerian time) today.
Meanwhile, the Super Eagles have
proposed to the organizers of tonight’s
