Ex International Ike Shorunmu has hailed Coach Gernot
Rohr for bringing in Dele Alampasu and Matthew Yakubu to the Eagles
squad to take on Tunisia and Côte d’Ivoire next month.
In a chat with brila.net, the former Samsunspor goalkeeper said
he is hoping that the newly invited goalkeepers live up to
expectations of the team’s handlers.
”We need to give kudos to the handlers of the team for making
this invited, right now we are all spectators watching what is
going on and what the goalkeepers will offer,” Shorunmu said.
“Whoever is being invited into the team, I believe they are good
due to the judgement of the coaches, now, it depends on the players
to show their abilities to the coaches and the entire fans of
football in Nigeria.”
