“We know we are condemned to win at home and if we want to go to the World Cup, we have to win,” the former Manchester United striker told reporters at the Moshood Abiola stadium on Sunday.
We know it is going to be a difficult game, it’s going to be a tough one, but the boys are ready to go.
“We just call on the fans to come out in numbers to cheer us on Tuesday, we are looking forward to them, because they are our 12th man.
Without them, it’s going to be impossible, so we want them to come out in numbers, support us and cheer us to victory. By God’s grace, we are going to win the game,” he stated.
