EGYPT 1-0 NIGERIA: How Super Eagles Rated against Pharaohs of Egypt

 EGYPT 1-0 NIGERIA: How Super Eagles Rated Vs Pharaohs

 DANIEL AKPEYI 7/10

Put up a brave performance in what was his first competitive game for the Super Eagles. Made two brilliant saves on  39 minutes  and could do nothing to prevent the Pharaohs from scoring the winner.

SHEHU ABDULAHI 4/10

A below-par showing from the Uniao Madeira of Portugal defender. He was constantly caught out of position especially in the first half and contributed little going forward.

EFE AMBROSE 5/10

The Celtic man did well to curtail the Pharaohs  attackers, but couldn't prevent them  from scoring the decisive goal. He  also lost possession a few times.

GODFREY OBOABONA 6/10

Solid as ever, but was  unfortunate to end up on the losing side.

STANLEY AMUZIE 3/10

Surprisingly kept his place in the starting eleven and put up a shoddy display in the game.  He was rightly substituted at the start of the second half after an error-prone performance.

OGHENEKARO ETEBO 4/10

Couldn't replicate his first leg performance. He make little impact in the game and  was substituted due to injury.

MIKEL OBI 5/10

The Chelsea midfielder had an average game although he started well, controlling the midfield early on. He however failed to lift his side to get a positive result from the game.

AMINU UMAR 4/10

A surprise inclusion in the starting line up. Umar toiled hard to make an impression in the game with no success.

AHMED MUSA 3/10

Another horrific display from the winger. Never made any significant impact in the game for the entire 90 minutes he spent on the pitch.

VICTOR MOSES 8/10

Unarguably Super Eagles best player in the game. Came close to getting the equalising goal late in the game when his shot hit the post.

ODION IGHAL0 4/10

Yet to make an impact on the international stage. The Watford forward struggled to get going and had a poor game by his Premier League standards.

SUBSTITUTES

ELDERSON ECHIEJILE 5/10

Took the place of Stanley Amuzie at the start of the second half and did little  to change the complexion of the game.

AZUBUIKE IKECHUKWU 6/10

The defensive midfielder helped stabilise the Super Eagles midfield when he came on for the injured Oghenekaro Etebo. He surely has a big future ahead of him.

ALEX IWOBI 6/10

Brought some life into the Super Eagles attack when he replaced Aminu Umar in the 72 minute.
