Godfrey Oboabona : South Africa Will Fall
Published: August 12, 2013
Super Eagles and Sunshine Stars defender, Godfrey Oboabona, strongly believe that South Africa's Bafana-Bafana will not be difficult for the African champions to beat when both sides clash in an international friendly scheduled to hold on Wednesday.
Speaking before the team’s departure on Sunday, Oboabona who was part of the team that won the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations in South Africa said the match billed to celebrate an African legend, Nelson Mandela, will go a long way in helping the senior national team to prepare well for the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Malawi next month.
“Playing against South Africa will be a good match for us- mostly when we have a crucial match coming up next month against Malawi and we just have to go there and make sure we win the match. We are not new to South Africa again, it is a winning venue for us and we are going to do it there again,” says the Sunshine Stars defender.
Oboabona who refused to speak on his possible transfer further said that his target for now is how to help Nigeria qualify for the 2014 FIFA World Cup while his agents are working on his transfer.
“I don’t want anything to distract me for now. My target is to help Nigeria qualify for the 2014 FIFA World Cup while my agents are working on anything that has to do with transfer. But what I know is that God will direct me to where he wants me to play."
Meanwhile, Rangers International goalkeeper, Chigozie Agbim, has declared that he looks forward to be considered for action in the match against Bafana-Bafana come Wednesday as he did not have the opportunity to play in South Africa during the Nations Cup early in the year.
