"We're half-way through and have a word with them a while ago and i doff my hat for them for being resilient, work hard in such an atmosphere in Kumasi. So, it was a fair result.

"But now, some players couldn't get involved now because one or two had knocks on Friday and in the recovery training players that played 90 to 95 minutes usually will do a little but of recovery training and rest and fully resume tomorrow (Sunday). But few of them that had knocks like Chukwueze, We are going to rest him.

"We have to take the game to Ghana. We tried to take the game to them on Friday but they were also very tough at the back especially the defense led by Amarte. Amarte was good, the goalkeeper was good as well."

Following their 0-0 draw at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi, Nigeria will need outright win on Tuesday at the Moshood Abiola Stadium Abuja.
