''God willing, we will satisfy the Libyan public in the next game despite the difficulty. As a coach, I am a person who is keen to accommodate all players.'' The Super Eagles are expected to begin training for their first competitive game against Libya as from Tuesday as the players have been instructed to report at the Ibom Hotel & Golf Resort in Uyo latest Monday, October 8.
