Nigeria vs Argentina : Leicester City striker, Kelechi Iheanacho has told Super Eagles handler, Gernot Rohr to employ a 3-5-2 formation when they face Argentina in their crucial World Cup match on Tuesday.
The forward was one of the beneficiaries when the German coach opted to change the formation to a 3-5-2 system that worked so well in the second half of the 2-1 loss to England three weeks ago.
”It was a good result for us, we changed the formation and it wasn’t good in the first half but we came back strong in the second half,” Iheanacho told reporters in the mixed zone.
”They say the voice of people is the voice of God, but I think the coach has a big part to play, so he has to make the final decision at the end, so any formation that he comes out with, this formation is giving us what we want.
”We really worked a lot on set-pieces before coming to this game. African teams, they say we are not good in set-pieces, but we are working on set-pieces so we can be strong to fight against (teams) in set-pieces, corner kicks and free-
kicks.”
The Super Eagles avoided an early flight home after beating Iceland 2-0, with Ahmed Musa scoring a brace.
