Lawal advises Rohr to give Moffi, Olayinka and other new Super Eagles more playing time in Cameroon friendly

The ex-international has urged the German tactician to give the newly-invited stars ample opportunities to prove their worth

Garba Lawal has advised Nigeria national team coach Gernot Rohr to give more playing time to Terem Moffi, Abraham Marcus, Peter Olayinka and other new players against Cameroon.

The Super Eagles lost 1-0 in the first fixture of their double-header against the Indomitable Lions in Friday’s international friendly in Austria.

A number of players were not available for the encounter due to injuries and Rohr handed cameo appearances to new players he invited for the game.
