Abuja — Nigerians across the country have
continued to hail the Super Eagles 2-1 victory against the Walya
Antelopes of Ethiopia in Addis Ababa on Sunday.
Enugu State Director of Sports, Mr Edwin Eze, told reporters that the match was an explosive one in which the Nigerian players showed their supremacy.
"Coming from behind in a high altitudinal area like Ethiopia and
winning the match is wonderful, that shows how determined the players
are to make Brazil 2014," Eze said.
Eze particularly praised Mikel Obi's performance in the match, adding that he was the man of the match.
"From what we saw in Addis Ababa, Ethiopians should forget Brazil 2014 and dream of long distance race."

"From the team's performance in Ethiopia, we will beat the Walya Antelopes in Calabar come November 16" Odigie said.
He recalled that the Eagles had not lost a match since the Brazil 2014 qualifying matches began, adding that it showed the players meant business.
Odigie praised Mikel for his wonderful performance and urged him to keep it up.
Mr Augustine Ezenwata, a football enthusiast, said there was the need for the Eagles to rout the Ethiopians in Calabar for their stubbornness in Addis Ababa.
