Eagles begin training today —Yusuf

Super Eagles coach Salisu Yusuf has hinted the team will hold first training session today ahead of Saturday’s 2018 World Cup qualifying series in Uyo
The coach told sportswriters in Abuja that said all the Super Eagles players are expected to be in camp latest this morning and hopefully they can start serious training by evening.
“The players are expected in camp on Sunday evening or latest Monday morning and hopefully we can start a serious training on Monday evening or Tuesday morning,” he disclosed.
He rated Algeria as one of the top teams in Africa but observes they have weak points which Nigeria will exploit to win.
“We know the Algeria are one of the best in Africa based on FIFA ranking. They are very good, but they are still beatable,” said Yusuf.
“We know their weak point and we are going to exploit it.
“We are very confident the Super Eagles will carry the day.”
He further maintained that the Eagles strongest point is in the attack, just like the Algerians.
“We have good players in the attack line just like the Algeria. They are scoring for their various clubs in Europe,” he said.
