Home-based Super Eagles coach Daniel Ogunmodede acknowledges that Nigeria has faced challenges in past matches against Ghana. The home-based Eagles will play against the Black Galaxies of Ghana in Uyo on Sunday as part of the CHAN qualifier play-off. In the first leg in Accra over the weekend, the home-based Eagles managed a 0-0 draw with the Black Galaxies. A score draw would allow the Ghanaians to move forward, while the home-based Eagles require a win to qualify for the 2024 CHAN. Ahead of this important match, Ogunmodede stated they are not concerned about their historical performance against Ghana. “We are aware that history hasn’t favored us against this country (Ghana), so we’ve chosen to focus on the present and our future instead of dwelling on the past,” he mentioned on NFF TV. “We understand how crucial it is to qualify, and we believe in a promising future for ourselves, the players, coaches, our country, and the next generation.” The Black Galaxies narrowly defeated the home team Eagles in a penalty shootout to secure their spot in the 2022 CHAN tournament. Sunday’s match is reminiscent of the qualifying matches for the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup, where Ghana’s Black Stars faced Nigeria’s Super Eagles. Following a goalless first leg in Kumasi, the second leg in Abuja ended in a 1-1 draw, allowing Ghana to qualify for the 2022 World Cup. By James Agberebi. Do you have what it requires?
