Rohr Watches With Keen Interest As Arsenal's Main Man Inspires Chile To Beat Cameroon

Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr will monitor the Cameroon national team at the 2017 Confederations Cup.

The Nigeria Football Federation have informed that the German tactician embarked on a scouting mission to identify the danger men and the playing style of the Indomitable Lions ahead of the national team's World Cup qualifier against the African champs in August.

''Rohr will be at the Confederations Cup as part of the team’s preparations for the matches against Cameroon,” NFF general secretary Mohammed Sanusi said in a statement, according to scorenigeria.com.ng.

Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez came off the bench in the 58th minute to inspire Chile to a 2-0 win over the Africans, he set up Arturo Vidal for the opener before Eduardo Vargas scored a second in the last minute.

It is all but confirmed that Rohr will return to Russia in a year's time, and not as a tourist, if the Super Eagles beat Cameroon home and away in their next two competitive fixtures.
