The Nigeria Football Federation has confirmed that Super Eagles shot-stopper, Maduka Okoye, will play no part in Ghana Vs Nigeria's crunch tie due to illness.

The battle between the two West African Giants intensifies as they try to produce a full-strength squad for their world cup qualification match.

If nothing else is important, the rivalry between both countries is enough rating for the match.

The Super Eagles camp has been hit with mixed feelings with exciting news like the return of red-hot striker, Victor Osimhen and newly added Ademola Lookman to the squad.

Other news like the absence of Wilfred Ndidi and Sparta Rotterdam goalkeeper, Maduka Okoye will definitely hit the camp.

However, after Maduka Okoye's last display for the Super Eagles, whose costly error led to the elimination of the competition's favorite at the earliest stage of the knockout, it remains unsure whether the Super Sagles' fanbase will miss him.

The player who has put some fine display in the Super Eagles shirt after taking the position from Frank Uzoho remains the only reliable shot-stopper for the team.

However, after his costly error in the Afcon tournament which led to wide criticism, many concluded it's time the team sought better goalkeepers.

When the team list for the qualifiers came out, it seemed the team was going to repeat another cycle.

But with this latest development do you think his injury news is a blessing or curse to the Super Eagles camp?

He is still the best Nigerian keeper for now.

Now I don dey miss am already.
