WCQ: Nwankwo Kanu wishes Nigeria the best ahead of Ghana encounter
Former Nigeria captain Nwankwo Kanu has urged the Super Eagles to go all put and cross the final hurdle to the World Cup in Qatar later this year.
The Super Eagles will host the Black Stars in a crucial make-or-break game at the Moshood Abiola stadium in Abuja on Tuesday night.
The winner of the game progresses to the tournament to be hosted in Qatar.
Ahead of the game, Kanu visited the team during their final training to inspire them ahead of the big game.
“KAN U believe it. One more sleep till Nigeria v Ghana World Cup qualifier. We wish the super eagles all the best. We are behind you come on let’s do it victory all the way,” Nwankwo Kanu wrote on Twitter after his visit.
The Black Stars need victory of a scoring draw to qualify for the tournament slated for November this year.
Ghana have been to the World Cup three times between 2006 to 2014 while Nigeria are hoping to make it to the Mundial for the seventh time.
