Victor Moses and Isaac Success

Both players cited respective injuries and failed to turn up for the cracker against Zambia 

Coach Gernot Rohr has hinted that both players will be invited, as three points is all that matters 


The coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria Gernot Rohr has vowed to unleash Victor Moses and Isaac Success against the Desert Foxes of Algeria when they meet in Uyo in a 2018 FIFA World qualifier. 

The duo failed to show up for the trip to Ndola where Nigeria defeated Zambia on October 9, as they claimed to be injured; and Nigerians condemned the act saying the players are unpatriotic and should not be invited to the team anymore.

However, coach Rohr has stated that only match-fit Eagles will be made to face Algeria as the three points is a top priority. 

Moses and Success have been in top form for their respective clubs with the duo getting a goal each in the English Premier League match-day 8. 

According to a source close to Vanguard, the two players will be used as the ‘joker’ against the North Africans. 

“If they think after watching that match against Zambia alone is enough study of the Nigerian team then they should be ready for surprises.
