2022 World Cup Playoff: I Know My Starting Line-Up Vs Ghana – Eguavoen

Super Eagles interim technical adviser Augustine Eguavoen claimed he already knows his starting line-up for the crucial 2022 FIFA World Cup playoff against the Black Stars of Ghana.

The two West African giants will clash in a two-legged playoff later this month.

The overall winner will proceed to the World Cup in Qatar.

“We have the 11 that will start,” Eguavoen told Elegbete TV.

“We don’t need distractions, all we need is support to cross this hurdle.”

Eguavoen also defended the inclusion of midfielder Oghenekaro Etebo on his squad even though he has only returned from a long-term injury.

“Etebo I have worked with closely, Bonke I haven’t and I have had no chance to go to France to watch him play,” the former defender explained.

“I have watched Etebo closely, I’ve watched him closely when he played in the U23s and when he played for the former coach Gernot Rohr in the Super Eagles.

“Etebo coming in now does not say he would be in the starting line-up.”
