Head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Austine Eguavoen has played down any fears about Victor Boniface struggling to find the back of the net in Friday’s AFCON qualifiers game against Libya, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.

Boniface has struggled to replicate his form in front of goal for Bayer Leverkusen with the senior national team of Nigeria with just a goal to his name in seven caps. Which includes firing blanks in the team’s 3-0 win over Benin Republic and the 0-0 draw away to Rwanda.

In the absence of Victor Osimhen, the 23 year old who has six goals and one assist in nine games this season is expected to lead the line for the Super Eagles in both games against Libya, starting from today’s game in Uyo.
