The class of Manchester City Nigerian forward Kelechi Iheanacho was very much on show in his first training session with the Super Eagles of Nigeria ahead of their friendly game against Corsica tomorrow.
Iheanacho showed his predatory instincts in the box with his finishing catching the eyes in the 8 -a-side game they played in training, where he ended up on the winning side.
Alhassan Ibrahim continue to wow Gernot Rohr with his performances in training with another star showing today as he combined nicely with Iheanacho in the practice match, with a cheeky finish helping him get among the goals.
FC Porto Mikel Agu provided steel for his team in the midfield especially his performances in duels, but his abilities on the ball and the way he brings others into play was the highlight of his performance.
Although he ended up on the losing side Ogehenekaro Etebo was also very impressive and barring any last minute change could be the Eagles joker against Corsica tomorrow.
Tyrone Ebuehi, William Troost-Ekong and Dele Alampasu complete the list of players who put in a good shift in today’s training, with the MFM duo of Stephen Odey and Sikiru Olatubosun yet to hit their stride in training.
