Former Nigeria winger Garba Lawal said the Super Eagles are lucky to avoid fan pressure in Lagos when they host Lesotho for their final 2022 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match on Tuesday.
The three-time African champions return to the Southwestern part of Nigeria for a home game after a long while and they are scheduled to play at the Teslim Balogun Stadium.
Nigeria qualified for the biennial showpiece on Saturday after an away win in Benin but Lawal suggested that fan presence would encourage Gernot Rohr’s men not to relax on their oars when they host Lesotho.
