Nigeria midfielder Babatunde Michael has his sights set on a starting role against Argentina in their last World Cup Group F clash on Wednesday, africanfootball.comreports.
The Ukraine-based player, who was picked ahead of Victor Moses in the 1-0 defeat of Bosnia on Saturday, was substituted in the 76th minute by Shola Ameobi after he got injured.
The Volyn winger, whose inclusion in Nigeria’s 23-man squad to the World Cup raised dust, has promised to turn in more good performances for the Eagles.
He said,
“I just need to keep the focus; I am here in the Eagles to prove a lot of things. I am ready to give everything to this team because I always believe I have all it takes to play for Nigeria.
“I have a lot to give to Nigeria and also owe my country a lot. And the future is bright with the quality of players I am privileged to play alongside. Everybody here is my brother and, I learn from them. They also see me as a friend and that makes it easier for me to build my confidence.”
