In order to avoid an early exit from the competition, Enyeama who is a strong believer said someone prominent NFF personnel walked up to him and asked him to wear voodoo for the game in order to help the team qualify.

‘Someone very prominent came to me, he said Vincent you’re the captain of the team, “I wan give you something make you put for cloth enter this Ethiopia match. [sic]” ‘

‘I told him I won’t and if I didn’t believe we could win fair; if I didn’t believe we could win against Ethiopia, I would have gone back and go home.’

The Super Eagles defeated the Ivorians and Malians, before seeing off Burkina Faso in the final.
