In what the new coach has termed
'OperationBeatEgypt', Siasia has called up 42
players, a mixture of foreign based players with
the home based talents to play the AFCON
qualifiers against Egypt.
“I want to passionately appeal to
Nigerians, everybody, to show belief in the
team and give us total support. It will not
be easy, but if we stick together and
present a united force to fight this battle,
I believe we will triumph.' Siasia said.
