Major sponsor of Nigeria’s national teams, Globacom, has urged the Super Eagles’ Team ‘B’ to work assiduously towards defeating the Syli Stars of Guinea in today’s last Group C game between both sides in Ribavu, Rwanda.
The Guineans who garnered only 2 points from previous two matches against Tunisia and Niger, will need a win over Nigeria in this encounter while the Eagles need a draw to guarantee a quarter finals ticket, having already amassed 4 points from their games against Niger and Tunisia.
“We believe the Super Eagles should not be complacent in this match which we consider crucial in Nigeria’s march to glory,” Globacom said in a statement issued in Lagos yesterday.
“So far, the Eagles have done well in Rwanda and we believe they have the capacity to scale the Guinean hurdle into the quarter finals,” the statement added.
The next generation network expressed confidence in the capability of the Eagles’ coaching crew to evolve the winning formula that would overwhelm the fellow West Africans.
“The fact that the Eagles have shown their scoring prowess in the tournament also gives us the confidence that Nigeria will prevail and we urge the players not to relent in their efforts until the match is won,” the statement further said, adding, “it is not over until it is over.”
Globacom also tasked the Nigeria Football Federation not to spare any effort at motivating the players and technical crew to secure the quarter finals ticket.
“We believe that the competition does not get more crucial than this and we urge the team to give the match against Guinea total concentration,” the statement concluded.
