The Super Eagles of Nigeria have gotten a boost ahead of their two legged qualifiers for the 2018 world cup against Cameroon as the Supporters Club unveil their intention on how to tame the Lions.
\nGernot Rohr\u2019s men face a stern double-header fixture against Cameroon on September 1 in Uyo and September 4 in Yaounde, as they continue their push for a ticket to 2018 Fifa World Cup in Russia<\/a>.
\nAnd the supporters chief said the club will stand firmly behind the three-time African champions and cheer them to victory as they remain upbeat of Nigeria\u2019s qualification to the World Cup.
\nHowever, Ladipo who is disappointed with the Super Eagles\u2019 absence from the last two editions of the African Cup of Nations warned that any other result apart from a total victory will not be welcomed by Nigerians.
\n\u201cWe do not expect anything from the Super Eagles other than a total victory against Cameroon,\u201d Ladipo told Goal.
\n\u201cAnd in view of that, the supporters club launched \u2018Operation taming the Lions of Cameroon\u2019 and that has to do with members of the club parsing everything to be used for the match.
\n\u201cAnd two days to the match, we will be fasting because in football no matter how good a team may be, you need an element of luck for you to win. That\u2019s why through our fasting and prayers, we are asking God to give us luck and make us victorious.
\n\u201cThe Indomitable Lions have been talking tough, and there is nothing wrong with that but they will not come to Uyo and defeat the Super Eagles.”
\n\u201cThis time around, whatever it will take, we will do to see the Super Eagles come out victorious,” he continued.
\n\u201cThe Lions of Cameroon will not go to the World Cup or Africa Cup of Nations or anything at the expense of our Super Eagles.
\n\u201cWe were not at the last two editions of the Cup of Nations and we are not happy but this third time, we will not allow that to happen and in view of that, we are appealing to the NFF to make provisions for everything that will make the players happy, get committed, go for matches, and let them win the matches.
\n\u201cFor us in the supporters club, you can be rest assured that we are not leaving any stone unturned in fact on that day, you are going to see some new things from the supporters club that will encourage and motivate the players to win the match.\u201d
\n\u201cOur expectation is nothing other than victory, the players must give their 100 percent plus commitment because they are going to be written in the good books of Nigeria if they go ahead to win those matches for us, so they too have a responsibility and so much at stake.\u201d<\/p>\n
