Dele Alampasu : Dream Team Can Beat Brazil

CD Feirense netminder Dele Alampasu did not mince his words when asked about the possibility of the Nigeria U23s beating their Brazilian counterparts on their home soil when both teams face off in an international friendly on March 24.

At this very moment, Alampasu’s Portuguese club have the final word whether or not the teenager would be allowed to make the journey to Espirito Santo as the Nigeria Football Federation has not officially contacted his European team about his invitation.

On top of that, it is thought that some European clubs may not release the international players in their ranks as a result of the Zika virus outbreak, with South Korean, English and Dutch FAs declining an invitation from the Confederação Brasileira de Futebol for a friendly.

“In football now anything can happen, so we can go there with God favour’s and win the game, ” Dele Alampasu told allnigeriasoccer.com.

“I worked with the interim coach of the Under 23s, Fatai Amao, few weeks before the Under 20 World Cup. I think everything is in control by God’s grace.”

Alampasu has made CD Feirense’s 18-man squad for Segunda Liga matches seven times this season, and kept two clean sheets in the League Cup in his first games as a professional.
