“I’m expecting us to win the game and nothing more. It’s an important game that we cannot afford to lose.

“We have to work hard and do whatever we can to win the game.”

Kalu is among four players handed first time call-ups by Super Eagles head coach, Gernot Rohr, for the clash against the Pirates.

Jamilu Collins, a defender with SC Paderborn, Semi Ajayi who plays for Rotherham United, and Kelechi Nwakali of FC Porto are the other three new invitees.
