Nigeria name squad for Ghana clash

Otto Addo yet to name Ghana squad to face Ghana

Nigeria name 8 defenders in squad to face Ghana

Nigeria’s squad to face Ghana in the 2022 World Cup playoffs have left many Ghanaians on social media wondering if the Black Stars have what it takes to stop the Super Eagles.

Nine attackers were named in the Super Eagles squad to face the Black Stars for their upcoming match scheduled for March 25 and 29.

The Super Eagles of Nigeria announced a 25-man squad to face the Black Stars of Ghana on Friday, March 4, 2022.

Following the release of the Nigerian squad to face Ghana, many have wondered what might have delayed the release of Ghana’s squad for the matches.

While some Ghanaians on social media expressed optimism in the Black Stars beating Nigeria to qualify for the World Cup, others were also pessimistic in Ghana’s chances of making it to the Mundial.

Read some reactions on social media below

What Nigerians need to know about the just released Super Eagles squad, old doesn’t always mean stale, while new doesn’t always mean “lively”

I am satisfied with the list. Our attack clearly lacked experience during the AFCON(part of why we lost the Tunisian game)

3 players give me chills. Wilfred Ndidi but Partey or Amartey can handle him, Lookman diɛ unless we get Tariq Lamptey else we can’t do shit, finally Kelechi “Senior Man” Iheanacho I honestly love that player but I’m convinced the Black Stars can handle the Super Eagles. https://t.co/97Uw2srRXL

Ogeyin Onazi is still getting the Super Eagles call up in 2022?

Someone that barely plays first team football.

Well, we’ve never been a serious Nation.

My take on Super Eagles latest squad lis

1. Rohr isn’t the only person doubting NPFL players

2. Amoo might be the missing creative midfielder

3. Lookman is highly-rated by NFF and Nigerians

4. Sorry for Nwakaeme, guy deserves a spot but in-form strikers are just too much

This squad is a joke. Apart from the attack that looks a bit decent, every other departments is below average and this certainly can’t beat our Black Stars. Appuuuu Partey, kudus, A. Duncan, Kyere in the middle and we go eat this over hyped Naija with ease ???????????????? https://t.co/4F9IHdtp5q
