    Ahead of the all important clash with Sudan, Super Eagles defender, Efe Ambrose has re-echoed the importance of getting back to winning ways after a poor start to the Africa Cup of Nation qualifier for Morocco 2015. 

    The AFCON defending champions, Nigeria must
    win their four remaining matches to secure a place in Africa prime tournament but to start the all important journey, a win against Sudan who are the whipping boys in Group A will set Nigeria on the path to Morocco.

    Efe Ambrose who feature for Scottish Premier League club, Celtic has told his club official website that the game against Sudan will be very difficult though the Nigerian isn't underestimating the magnitude of their task, particularly with a fired-up opposition to contend with.  

     “For me, it’s going to be the most difficult test for us as we had poor results in the games we played last month so we need to win these two games to be in the race to qualify for the Nations Cup,” 

    “As the defending champions, we have to qualify, so these are games which will be intense. Sudan aren’t pushovers, and in Africa, every country wants to beat Nigeria which that makes it harder.

    “We know what we need to do and the coach and the technical staff will have mapped out our strategy for us. So it’s up to us to go out there, execute it and keep ourselves in good shape in the qualifying.” Said Ambrose.
