Many would chicken over the Nigerian soccer team, Super Eagles, but Rwandan players, like Vietnam based striker, Jimmy Mulisa vowed to thrash the Super Eagles in Kigali.
Many would chicken over the Nigerian soccer team, Super Eagles, but Rwandan players, like Vietnam based striker, Jimmy Mulisa vowed to thrash the Super Eagles in Kigali.
"There's no reason to fear the star-studded Super Eagles," said Mulisa.
Playing on home territory would be a great advantage for the Wasps to sting the visiting eagles. "We do believe that we have a chance to snatch maximum points against Nigeria as long as we engage in the match as a team," Mulisa noted.
Nigeria, who jet in on May 31 from England where they are undergoing residential training, will be comprised of household names including Bolton skipper Jay Jay Okocha, former Arsenal star Nkwankwo Kanu and Inter Milan's Obefami Martins.
But Mulisa has said that Rwandan team has gone beyond fearing big names. "We have been in the Africa Cup of Nations before where we faced big names. As such, there is nothing to worry about," he said.
Rwanda is on the bottom of group IV with four points, while Nigeria the leader of the group has 13.
