“The fact is the Super Eagles played exciting football, a lot of possession though in the opponent's half we didn’t get that creativity that we wanted all in all two games six points we are good to go.

Aghahowa also believes that coach Eguavoen should rest some of his key players and give others a run in the team.

“I think this is a walk in the park. The last game is just for us to play those players that have not had game time,” Aghahowa said.
