A smiling Onazi spoke to supersport.com after training “I am fine and I am very happy that it was not worse than I had feared”.
The Trabzonspor of Turkey midfielder was hit in the back in a mid air collision with Mane Biram Diouf of Stoke City. “I don’t know why he was so aggressive considering it was a friendly but I thank God I am ok. It is football” the team’s skipper said.
Even though prestige friendly between Nigeria’s Super Eagles and the Stallions of Burkina Faso has been called off the Nigerian team still came out to train on Saturday morning at the Hive stadium of Barnet Football club.
Coach Geraht Rohr and his technical crew put the players through their paces and it was as competitive as their trainings have been since the team arrived London.
