Nigeria: Siasia to Poach Flying Eagles Stars

17 August 2011

Super Eagles chief coach, Samson Siasia has showered encomium on the Flying Eagles and their handler, John Obuh. He described the team's 3-2 loss to France in a dramatic quarter-final clash on Sunday's night as unfortunate. But promised to drag some of the Colombia 2011 players to the Super Eagles.
