Nigeria winger, Moses Simon is optimistic the Super Eagles will beat Ghana’s Black Stars in the second leg of the ongoing World Cup qualifiers in Abuja, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The FC Nantes winger who had the only clear chance in the first leg in Kumasi believes a draw was a good result, saying ‘Ghana will take it.’

“…you’ll see the quality [of the Super Eagles] in tomorrow’s game. Of course, you’ll see my form, but it is all about the team,” Simon said during a prematch press conference.

The 26-year-old was so anonymous in the recent game against the Black Stars, so much so that it was wrongly thought he was substituted for Emmanuel Dennis on the hour mark.

Asked if he's in perfect condition and how he plans to enjoy himself tomorrow, Simon answered : "Of course you'll see me in form in tomorrow's game.

"It's not all about me, it's all about the team and team spirit. We know what it takes for this game and we'll give everything."

He added : "The game against Tunisia I was not caged, if you say I was caged I didn't observe it and you talk about the game against Ghana it is tactics because we all know it can be difficult.

"We know how Ghana play so we decided to play for a draw because we know when they come here they will lose."
