Sporting Braga of Portugal left back, Elderson Echiejile, is targeting an outright win as the Super Eagles launch attack on their Flames of Namibia counterparts in next week’s Wednesday 2014 World Cup qualifying tie in Windhoek.
Echiejile, who was an integral part of the Super Eagles team that won the African Cup of Nations in South Africa few months ago, voiced his aspirations on his twitter handle.
He tweeted: “It was great picking the three maximum points against Kenya. Lots of thanks to Nigerians that came out to support us in Kenya and those of them back home in Nigeria. You guys were great!
“Next on our mind is Namibia game, sure we won’t disappoint our fans worldwide.”
The former Stade Rennes defender has won 29 caps and scored one goal against Mali in the last edition of the African Cup of Nations in South Africa.
The erstwhile Insurance of Benin star was snapped up by Sporting Braga on a four-year deal worth €2.5 million.
