Eguavoen: How We ‘Tamed’ Mohamed Salah by solbase10(m): 9:46am On Jan 12, 2022
Super Eagles head coach Austine Eguavoen has revealed how his side stopped Egypt captain Mohamed Salah in Tuesday night’s 2021 Africa Cup of Nations Group D clash, Completesports.com reports.

The Liverpool star failed to make much impact in the game with his side going down to a 1-0 defeat.

Much was expected from the forward following his superlative displays for Liverpool this season, but he was marked out of the game by the Super Eagles.

Eguavoen has now shed light on how his team tamed Salah in the game.

“Our main objevtive was to win the game, cut off Salah and keep the ball and we did all that,” Eguavoen said after the game at the Stade Roumde Adija, Garoua.

“We played direct and we also kept the ball.

“We will continue to approach each game as a cup final.”

Nigeria’s next game in the 2021 AFCON finals is against Sudan on Saturday.

Eguavoen is technically sound.

I like his approach to the game.

Wish Eagles to fly higher

The Pharos played Salah as a lone striker so it was easy to lock him out. Both teams defended well esp Ahmed Hegazi that guy is a solid defender.

I would have subbed Salah on the 75th min if I was the head coach.

I think he should relax with this "sallah buzz" the guy had bad day in office n him playing as a striker as isolated him..
our coach should stop making it seems like s huge deal bcoz no b today European stars dey struggle for AFCON, just as Algeria couldn't beat d lowly rated team yesterday
our defense line was brilliant bt d likes of ekong was slow n a bit static, e allowed sallah beat an offside trap dt would ab changed d game bt dts the "luck" favtor in football..

Okay oo, Nigeria won the match and many others won theirs too. Just qualify abeg (and maybe win the cup), that's the goal.

it was a nice game from the midfield n the attack, I think mr coach should focus on improving d team than talking about sallah dt was as bad as the whole Egyptian team yesterday
I wouldn't agree with you that Salah was bad yesterday. The tactics they used in first half was not favouring him. They were loading the ball to him instead of laying it for him. Immediately they saw that loading the ball was working for Nigeria but not for them they were meant to change tactics but too bad they had to wait till HT for their coach to tell them. Our long ball was reaching Simon but theirs wasn't reaching Salah.

Next is Sudan.

For gamblers in the house Nigeria to win Sudan and over 1.5, the rest of the fixtures aside ivory coast from today till Saturday play them under 2.5 and smile to the bank.

This I have seen.
