The gaffer said he admires Osimhen and voted for him during the FIFA best awards last year.

Goncalves admitted the Super Eagles is enriched with quality and mind blowing players that are capable of crushing any side.

“I myself, in the FIFA votes, also voted for him (Osimhen) as one of the best players in the world,” Goncalves was quoted by Sapo Desportovo.

“So we will play against a selection equipped with players with a lot of talent, who have tremendous, mind-blowing playing capacity, a lot of speed, especially derived from of the two forwards, Osimhen and Lookman, who, in fact, add great vertigo to the game.”
