“I pulled my muscle during the game against Tanzania but I was able to play all through the game with it. I started feeling the pains after the game,” said Izunna Uzochukwu to allnigeriasoccer.com.
“I started training with the physical trainer on Tuesday and it’s looking good so far.
“I should be back training with the team fully again next week by God’s grace. ”
