Only players with big heart should be fielded against Ghana Efe Ambrose warns
Former Nations cup winning super eagles defender Efe Ambrose has warned that the World cup playoff against Ghana should only be played by players who have big heart for big game.
The Former Celtic star said the Ghanains will come out with all they have and will leave everything on the pitch in the two legged ties especially because they are playing Nigeria.
He said though Nigeria has got good crop of players at the moment but stressed that it would not be enough to get the needed result against the Black stars if the players dont see as a “do or die”.
” I think the only way we can book the world cup ticket is to play only players with big heart who understand the eternal rivalry between Nigeria and Ghana”.
” Unfortunately i dont think we have many players in the current squad who have that big heart and big game mentality to play the Ghanains.
He added that the Ghanaians are deliberate in their quest to pick the World cup and that is why they have taken the first leg to a very terrible pitch in capecoast where they can unsettled the Eagles.
” Their choice to go to the bad pitch in capecoast is to make sure the eagles would not be able to play their game and that is why i am begging the coach to use only players who can play this kind of “rofo rofo” game.
He warned that Nigerians should not be deceived by the performance of the black stars at the last AFCON in cameroon because it is a different Ghanain performance we will see this time around.
Efe Ambrose who enjoyed 51 caps for the Super Eagles is currently on loan at Dunfirmline Athletics from St Johnstones in Scotland.

President of the Nigeria Volleyball Federation (NVBF), Engineer Musa Nimrod, has called on Nigerian families to adopt healthy living habits through regular participation in sporting and fitness activities.
Nimrod made the call on Sunday during the third edition of the Hoba Development Association, Abuja Chapter, novelty sports event held at the Indoor Sports Hall of the Moshood Abiola National Stadium, Abuja.
He noted that physical activities such as sports are vital to fostering family bonds, community interaction, and overall well-being.

Also speaking, the stand-in Chairman of the Hoba Community, Barrister Nathan Naandeti, highlighted the significance of the annual novelty games, describing them as a unifying platform for members of the community.
“It’s something we do every year to promote unity, togetherness, and fitness among our people. Sports is part of who we are,” he stated.
Men, women, and children from the Hoba community participated in various sporting activities, including volleyball, badminton, football, and aerobics—all aimed at encouraging relaxation, fitness, and bonding among families.
