Two-goal hero Emmanuel Emenike says he knew he would get a goal, despite the attention of Ethiopian defenders in the Super Eagles’ 2-1 win over the Walya Antelopes in Addis Ababa on Sunday.
“I was not worried at all even though they were marking me very tight,” Emenike told reporters after the game.
“I knew I could score with a shot because my shots are very strong, I just wanted to get the right moment.
“We were not worried. We knew that they would come at us, and we had to save our energy for the second half.”
And with the result secured, Emenike says Brazil is not far off.
“It is not over yet, we still have to play the remaining 90 minutes at home. After that, we can celebrate,” he said. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
