Super Eagles winger Ahmed Musa has predicted a repeat 2-0 win for Nigeria over hosts Ethiopia in Sunday’s 2014 World Cup playoff.

In January, the Super  Eagles beat Ethiopia with two penalty goals by Victor Moses at the Royal Bafokeng Stadium in Rustenburg, South Africa.

”The Ethiopians are a very difficult team to play. They are quick on the ball, they like to pass and they have speed but with all that we will still beat them in their back yard,” predicted CSKA Moscow forward Ahmed Musa.

”I see us winning by the same margin we defeated them at the Nations Cup in South Africa, 2-0.”
However, Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has insisted he expects a much improved Ethiopia than the team they beat in South Africa.

”The game against Ethiopia this weekend would be a different ball game from the game we played against them at the Nations Cup. Every game has its own spirit, every game has its own state of mind,” Keshi said.

“We have to prepare ourselves, that is the only way we can survive in Ethiopia, intensity of the game has to be there, high concentration in the game has to be there for us to come up top.”
