Can the Super Eagles Come Out Victorious Against this Algerian Side?

It's a much anticipated match that's coming tomorrow and I am particularly worried about the outcome. My worst fear of the tournament is seeing Nigeria crash out. Good teams have come and gone in the competition but could we make the finals? It's Algeria

Don't get me wrong, I'm not underestimating the Super Eagles but I watched Algeria's last match, they are aggressive! And I worry if we can checkmate that pace. If only we stall them, if only we play defensive and look to hit them on the counter, if only we make them a luscious bait and pounce on them in their moment of vulnerability, then maybe, maybe we would have a good chance to win this.

Samuel Chukwueze proved to be of vital importance to the team as seen in our last match, he has that kind of courage to take on defenders and leave them biting the dust, he has that speed and power, that drive and mentality to give us what we need. I mean, he left Ighalo completely in the shadows but nevertheless, Ighalo, Musa and Chukwueze is still a good combination for me. We were very solid in our midfield, we were precise in our attack and we were disciplined defensively in contrast to our first few matches which saw some defensive errors.

Whatever the case maybe, the Super Eagles really need to replicate the performance they put up against the bafana bafana tomorrow against this North African side. And I hope Algeria will be as wasteful as they were in their match against Ivory Coast, until then..

Watch out for this space
