Brasil 2014 - Keshi Vowed To Nigerians "I No Go Fall Una Hand''

AS the days approach swiftly for the kick off of the World Cup, Super Eagles coach Stephen Keshi has promised not to ''fall the hands of Nigerians'', as they say in local parlance which means not disappointing Nigerians at the World Cup.

Having played two friendlies – 2-2 with Scotland and a scoreless draw with Greece, Keshi may have finally realised the task that awaits him as he plays in the World Cup as coach having been denied to take Togo to the World Cup despite qualifying them. ''My brother, it is not an easy job'', he admitted to Sports Vanguard before embarking on the journey to Brazil.

Two games without a win, Nigerians are hissing and sighing on the chances of the Super Eagles moving beyond the second round which has been their best mark since making their debut in USA '94.

'These players are careful not to get injuries. Some of them wanted to impress us after announcing the list to the World Cup'', spokesman of the Super Eagles, Ben Alaiya quoted Keshi as saying.

Keshi knows the expectations of Nigerians and his last friendly against United States of America is expected to be better than the Greece game. ''I know what Nigerians want and I promise not disappoint Nigerians. It was not easy selecting these final 23 players to represent Nigeria. But, I promise that these 23 are the best we have and they will make Nigeria proud in Brazil'', he vowed.
