Two goals from Victor ‘holy’ Moses and Victor Obinna Nsofor saw the eagles defeat Ethiopia 2 – 0. After a subdued performance by both teams in the first half, Victor Moses scored from the penalty spot when the referee awarded a penalty after a hand ball incident in the box.
The second half wasnt much different, and the Coach decided to opt for some fresh legs, bringing in Victor Obinna Nsofo to replace Victor Moses. And he didnt disappoint, playing a pefect free kick into the net, after Emmanuel Elemenike had been fouled just outside the box.
In the end it was the eagles who smiled home with the ticket after 90mins. Great game in the end….
See you in Brazil!
