The days leading up to the Supa Eagles next in the AFCON 22 qualifiers were full of training for the Nigerian players.
The morale at the training ground was at an all time high and the players trained with seriousness and determination as they readied themselves for the coming game.
The previous match had ended in their win, but their performance in the match, especially defensively, still left a bit to be desired and the manager wanted that out of the way before they went into the next game, after all, they couldn't always make a comeback in every game.
The players also understood their faults in that match and listened to the manager's instructions as he explained how he wanted the players to play when they were not in possession of the ball.
After a major refurbishment of their defensive playing style, Gernot Rohri had the players take to the field to practice the new defensive tactics.
