The Super Eagles of Nigeria will by 6pm Nigerian Time play the Pharaohs of Egypt in their second leg of 2017 AFCON qualifier double header.
The Egyptians were fortunate to escape with a draw in Friday’s first leg played at the Ahmadu Bello Stadium, Kaduna courtesy of a late goal from Mohamed Salah who capitalised on a defensive blunder.
Today’s game may well determine which of the two teams will win Group G’s ticket to the 2017 AFCON finals, after Chad Republic pulled out of the qualifiers.
To spur the Eagles on, many Nigerian football fans have gone on social media to wish the team luck and give pieces of advice on how best to approach the game. Trust Nigerians!
Here are their comments…

"@OptaNGR: #OnThisDay
2011: Musa scored (vs Kenya)
2015: Musa scored (vs South Africa)
Will Ahmed Musa score today? #EGYNGA"

My pre-game wailing routine about the @NGSuperEagles XI is probably getting old by now, so mum's the word. Just win. #EGYNGA
