Former captain of the national team, Henry Nwosu has advised Super Eagles players to go for early goals in this weekend’s crucial 2012 Nations Cup qualifier against Guinea.

Nwosu who spoke to Sports Vanguard Tuesday also advised Coach Samson Siasia’s wards not to fall to the antics of the Guineans as they would employ every antic imaginable to frustrate the Nigerians.

“I know the Eagles will play to win. We have the pedigree and the caliber of players to do it. We can beat Guinea but the players must go for early goals. If they can do that there will be confidence in the team and the fans would have less to worry about. They need to score early,” Nwosu said

Nwosu warned, “The Guineans will come to Abuja to frustrate us. They will be falling unnecessarily and want to delay the game. Our players should expect this.”

He also said the Eagles must not be caught unawares as the Syli Stars are noted for fast breaks and counter attack. “The defence should be assisted so that they are not caught napping. Guineans are fast in counter attacks and that is what we must check,” he said.
