Former Green Eagles player, Nicholas Ukadike, has predicted victory for Nigeria’s Super Eagles in Sunday’s win or break 2010 World Cup qualifier against the Carthage Eagles of Tunisia at the National Stadium Abuja. Ukadike, who played for Spartans of Owerri and later Iwuanyanwu Nationale in his days, however, warned the Super Eagles to be wary of the Tunisians as they would deploy all antics in their kitty to frustrate them. He said the frustration Nigeria suffered in the hands of Angola on the road to Germany 2006 would not repeat itself this time around, advising that the Super Eagles should do away with anxiety and utilise their chances as they come.
