Yakubu Aiyegbeni
Former Super Eagles forward Yakubu Aiyegbeni has joked about Ghana’s lack of firepower upfront, reports say.
The Black Stars will take on the Super Eagles in two-legged qualifiers later this month.
The Ghanaians will be without their most deadly and popular striker Andre Dede Ayew, who is suspended for the game.
“We (Nigeria) have about nine strikers. Ghana don’t have strikers, so we can even spare them some,” he said.
Aiyegbeni further took a jibe at Ghana by saying that while non-qualification to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar will be a massive disaster for Nigeria, it will not be so for Ghana.
“Just imagine Nigeria not qualifying for the World Cup?” he asked.
“Ghana not qualifying for the World Cup is not a big deal.”
Ghana will host the Super Eagles at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium, Kumasi on March 25, while the reverse fixture will take place at the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja four days later.
