Super Eagles Captain John Mikel Obi has stated that the team will bounce back and be better from Tuesday’s 2-0 defeat against Serbia and hopes to take part in the side’s remaining tune-up games ahead of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.
The three-time African champions had a terrible display in the encounter played at the Hive Stadium, London with Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic scoring both goals for Serbia.
Mikel missed the game and the previous friendly against Poland due to work permit issues he had in china.
