According to Goal.com, the coach tweeted: “Very constructive meeting with Chelsea and Super Eagles’ Victor Moses. The team building continues,” after Sunday’s game where Chelsea lost 1-0 to Arsenal in the Community Shield game at Wembley Stadium.
The Atlanta 1996 Olympics gold winner also stated that the clash against Tanzania is very crucial as he targets a win in his first game against the Taifa Stars.
“The match in Dar es Salaam is very, very crucial, not only because it will be my first match as Head Coach, but also because we have no choice other than to win. The three points are important for us to keep up the tempo in our group.
“We are on the same three points with Egypt, though they have scored a goal more. That is why we cannot afford any slip along the way.
“We will deal first with the match in Tanzania, and then we will start thinking about the CHAN qualifiers with Burkina Faso in October, and then the FIFA World Cup qualifying fixture in November.“There is a lot of work. After these matches, we will now start working towards the two AFCON qualifying matches we have with the Pharaohs in March next year,” he reportedly told the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) website.
The NFF has also listed a top grade friendly match for the national team after their qualification match against the Tazanian national team.
