Observations: Ghana 0-2 Nigeria

After the emphatic 2-0 victory over the Black Stars of Ghana, these are observations from Olamide Oyetunji.

● Aremu is a beast,He totally put Ghana midfield to his pockets, Ali joined Okpotu in attack most times.

● Ezenwa nearly commit another penalty and all the goals he has conceded are from the spots. He must watch it.

● Adeleye Olamilekan is ripe to partner any of Ekong and Balogun in the main Super Eagles, all his tackles are well timed but he has brain.

My man of the match even though he sustained a head injury.

● Peter Eneji is also exciting to watch.

● Ghana coach made a change from his regular starting eleven.

They lost 3players to injury/fatigue in the match against Nigeria.

● Ghana were just never winning the game, we started the match well playing the ball on the ground created multiple chances but we switched off midway in the first half playing long balls to only Okpotu in the midst of five Ghanaians.

We played the ball on the ground in the second half and completely overpowered the Ghanaians thanks to Aremu who was cutting the Ghanaians like cake.
