CHAN 2020 Qualifier: Udoh, Sunusi target goals against Togo

NIGERIA Professional Football League joint top scorers for last season, Mfon Udoh and Ibrahim Sunusi have assured Nigerians of goals rain when Super Eagles B take on Sparrow Hawks of Togo in the second leg of the 2020 African Nations Championship qualifier on Saturday in Lagos, Sportsbiz247.blogspot.com reports.

Nigeria lost 4-1 in the first leg in Togo last month and Udoh said they have worked on their being wasteful and will be more clinical when they get the chance to score at the Agege Stadium.

“Everybody thinks it is a dicey situation and we also think it is a dicey situation too. But I believe with hard work and determination, we can surpass the score line and make Nigeria qualify for the CHAN 2020. We had chances there but we just failed to convert them which we have actually worked on it. I believe we are going to convert every single chance that we would have in this particular game, “the Akwa United forward said.

Sunusi on the other hand said the team will be motivated by the fans as he is focused on qualification only.

“For me, we are ready and by God’s grace we are going to win. As they defeated us on their home ground, we will also beat them here too and qualify for the 2020 CHAN tournament. The mistake we made in the first match was that we relaxed after scoring the first goal. This time we are playing at home, we have the fans behind us. I won’t promise that we are going to score four or five goals, all I know is that we are going to qualify by God’s grace,” the Nasarawa United striker assured.
