Gernot Rohr refuses to name Ezenwa or Akpeyi as his No.1 goalkeeper

Injury to in September ensured that Ezenwa was between the posts.

The FC IfeanyiUbah goalkeeper also had a good WAFU Cup tournament where he was named best goalkeeper.

Despite his impressive performances, Super Eagles boss is refusing to name Ezenwa as his first choice insisting that all his goalkeepers have a chance.

Akpeyi returned to the team and trained on Wednesday and Rohr insists that he has a chance to start.

“What I saw today in the training session was very good. Ezenwa did very well, Daniel Akpeyi is coming back also, there is competition and it’s very good,” Rohr told after training.

“This competition is very fair also.

“Ezenwa did very well with the WAFU team, five games without conceding a goal, was the best goalkeeper of the tournament, so its full confidence, Akpeyi is coming back, he is playing with Chppa United at the high level, so we will see the best one will play.”

Super Eagles first choice goalkeeper Carl Ikeme is out on a long-term as he continues to battle acute leukaemia.
