Angola head coach, Pedro Goncalves has named Victor Osimhen and Ademola Lookman as Nigeria’s key players.
Osimhen and Lookman played a key role in Nigeria’s 2-0 victory against perennial rivals, Cameroon last Saturday.
Lookman, who was named Man of the Match, scored twice, while Osimhen registered an assist.
The duo are expected to be named in the starting line-up when the Super Eagles confront the Black Antelopes.
“I myself, in the FIFA votes, also voted for him (Osimhen) as one of the best players in the world, so we will play against a selection equipped with players with a lot of talent, who have tremendous, mind-blowing playing capacity, a lot of speed, especially derived from of the two forwards, Osimhen and Lookman, who, in fact, add great vertigo to the game,” Goncalves told Sapo Desportovo.
The Super Eagles and Angola will clash at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium, Abidjan on Friday.
