Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh has praised Mikel Obi for the pivotal role he played in the team’s friendly against DR Congo Thursday.
The 2-0 loss to DRC was Mikel’s first game under Sunday Oliseh.
Oliseh said he was really impressed with Mikel’s commanding display as he carried the team well.
“Mikel played very well and I am impressed with his performance in the game,” remarked the Eagles coach.
“He carried the team well and dictated the pace. He was mobile and did what I asked him to do, leading others and telling them what to do, that’s what is expected of him. It’s been long I saw him play that way, I hope this continues.”
