Play More As A Team Against Cameroon, Garba Lawal Urges Super Eagles

Former Nigeria international, Garba Lawal, has said the Super Eagles can defeat any side at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, including Cameroon, if they show the right attitude and play as a team.

Speaking ahead of an encounter with perennial rivals, Cameroon, he said: “I have the conviction that these Eagles can beat any team if they decide to play as a team and play with the right attitude. The attitude was poor against Madagascar and I also admit that we have not been playing too well in the current Afcon.”

Lawal should know, having featured in four AFCON, finals apart from winning a gold medal with the Nigeria Under-23 team at the 1996 Olympic Games.

“Cameroon will provide the right test for us because they are rough and will be very tough to beat as the defending champions of the competition. The Eagles must play with the right composure and calmness and they must be ready to make sacrifices because Cameroon will not give up so easily,” he added.
