Victor Moses Reveals His Favorite Match In 2018 World Cup Qualifiers
Published: June 02, 2018Victor Moses has singled out the 4-0 bashing of African champions Cameroon in Uyo on the first day of September last year as his most fulfilling match in the Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifying series.
"My best match of the qualifying series was the one against Cameroon in Uyo. We went into the match with Cameroon being the champions of Africa, and with so many people expecting us to be defeated.
''We realized that and we told ourselves we had to go all out. We did and won handsomely. That was when we knew we had the World Cup ticket for the taking," Moses told thenff.com in London.
Nigeria's top scorer of the FIFA World Cup qualifying series with three goals, Moses then assured that the team retains the steel and coherence that took it past Cameroon and that those qualities will be on display in Russia this summer.
"We are a team in spirit and in action. When we were starting the qualifiers, people said it was a 'group of death'.
''Now, people say we are in 'group of death' at the World Cup. We will keep surviving and thriving."
The Chelsea FC ace has also handed big kudos to the President of Nigeria Football Federation, Mr. Amaju Melvin Pinnick and his team for changing the administrative game for the better, through developing a special relationship with the players, keeping its word at every turn and attracting global attention to the Nigeria game through deft moves in a number of areas
