‘Do something big’ — Enyeama’s message to African teams going to World Cup

Lille goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama has urged African teams to excel at the 2018 World Cup.

He posted the message on Twitter shortly after the Super Eagles pipped Poland 1-0 on Friday night.

Despite their lackluster performance in the last World Cup, the former Eagles goalkeeper believes that African sides have the arsenal to go far.

Nigeria, Egypt, Morocco, Senegal and Tunisia are Africa’s representatives at the World Cup.

“I believe that the time for an African team to do something big at the World Cup has come,” he tweeted.

Enyeama congratulated the Super Eagles for the victory at the Municipal Stadium in Wroclaw.

“Amazing results tonight (Friday). Congratulations to @NGSuperEagles for your victory over the Poland national football team.Future looks bright for Naija Football,” he wrote.
