Sunday Oliseh Names Starting XI, Mikel, Echiejile & Oboabona On Bench
Published: November 17, 2015
Super Eagles manager Sunday Oliseh has sorted out his starting line - up for Tuesday afternoon’s World Cup qualifier, second leg tie against Swaziland at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium, starting from 1600 hours.
The former Nigeria skipper makes three changes from the side that drew goalless with the same opponents last Friday, including starts for home - based trio Paul Onobi, Chima Akas And Austin Oboroakpo
But as expected, he has kept faith with goalkeeper Carl Ikeme, with Chima Akas, Abdullahi Shehu, Austin Oboroakpo and Efe Ambrose offering protection.
The midfield consists of Sylvester Igboun and Eddy Onazi but the coach has drafted in Paul Onobi for Obi Mikel.
Odion Ighalo will spearhead the Super Eagles goalscoring threat and the Watford star will be flanked by skipper Ahmed Musa and Gent winger Moses Simon.
Super Eagles Starting XI : Ikeme; Akas, Oboroakpo, Ambrose, Abdullahi; Onobi, Onazi, Igboun; Ighalo, Moses, Musa.
