Nigeria national team head coach, Gernot Rohr, has spoken about his satisfaction with his squad’s preparation for their 2022 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against the Republic of Benin on Saturday.
The Super Eagles had full training at the Teslim Balogun Stadium, Lagos on Wednesday with all the 24 invited players involved.
Rohr also confirmed he has no injury worries ahead of their encounter with the Squirrels.
“The training was okay, it was a long training today because today is Wednesday and we still have the time to recover, so we wanted to physically work hard today,” Rohr told the media.
“The weather was good so we could do one hour and 38 minutes which is a long time for a training session but we didn’t train this morning so we could do more this afternoon.
“We are satisfied about the pitch, they worked very well on it and now we can play football on this pitch.
“It was a good training session, no injuries, tomorrow again we will do it, and then after tomorrow we will go to Porto-Novo and from Porto-Novo to Cotonou and back to Porto-Novo because we have one training session in Porto-Novo where we will play.”
