Nigeria will eliminate Bafana for AFCON 2019, also beat Cameroon - Rohr


Nigeria coach Gernot Rohr has said he expects his team to go past South Africa at home in June on their way to qualifying for AFCON 2019 and also edge past Cameroon in World Cup qualifiers beginning in August.

Rohr’s Eagles are drawn against South Africa, Libya and Seychelles for a place at the 2019 AFCON in Cameroon.

Nigeria welcome Bafana Bafana in June to get the AFCON qualifiers going.

“Nigeria cannot miss the AFCON again because it’s a big tournament to celebrate African football. I hope we will be there at the next tournament,” he said.

“But to do that we have to eliminate South Africa, who are a good team.

“We need a good preparation and organisation. We will have two friendly games next month and we have the possibility to test some new players and be together.”

He also spoke on the World Cup double header against Cameroon billed for August 28 in Uyo and September 2 in Limbe.

“The AFCON was a good tournament in Gabon and there were some good teams. The best team won the competition. We are interested in this team because we play them in the World Cup qualifiers,” he said.

“We’re happy for Cameroon, but we have to beat the African champions.

“But our game will only be in six months and a lot of things could happen during that time.”

That's d spirit....

Talk is cheap Mr. Roar.

Instead of roaring, can you do us a favour by qualifying for AFCON and world cup first.

Nigeria didn't go to AFCON this year, and the world didn't come to an end.

All talk and no action








Bragging dhiiut

Meanwhile

cristiano ronaldo and lionel messi didn't just wake up and became the best players they trained for a long time so if your girl/wife is so good in bed, My brother i've got a bad news for you.

I don't even know what to say but I must book space

Action speaks louder than words. in football, the talking is done on the pitch

God help them!!!

and when they are Done they will be given 20k allowances

funny people
hilarious country


ona goodluck sha

I have small confidence in this man.

Rohr is talking to make others aware of what he's seen.


I'm sure with the disposal of talent under a German like him, some bragging rights is allowed. Esp as he doesn't need more than 3 games to breed cohesion.

Is okay Mr Mr coach

Talk less and act more

i believe

For all this volley ball players above me he needs to talk and be pessimistic after all his not going to play with them on the pitch he only tells them what to do.

Una don dey rake now o. Remember sey no matter how w cow purge reach e no fit turn to goat.

yes o, cus I have Faith in this super eagles team

If and only if I will play..

Good luck to us shaa..

Unfortunately for Cameroon,African champion won't be at the next world cup.

Right and left wing back positions need to be fixed before the matches. Don't know any outstanding players for these positions. The warm up matches can be veritable for getting new players, though

just sort out our fullbacks position. then we are good to go

It's good to be optimistic. All the best to the Super Eagles in their qualifiers.

NameChecker:
Solomon Dalung's Reaction to Rohr's Comment

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING ABOUT MIND GAMES AND PLAYING THE PSYCHOLOGICAL MIND GAME.

MOST BLACK-AFRICAN COACHES ALSO DON'T KNOW IT ANYWAY, SO WHY SHOULD YOU KNOW?

....and beating Cameroon and South Africa is a huge achievement? Hopeless losers!
