Nigeria u23 coach Samson Siasia will be back to the stadium where he
has fond memories as the Olympic team prepare to take on host Senegal in
the semifinal of the
Caf U23 Africa Cup of Nations on Wednesday.
Siasia, alongside an exciting cast of Super Eagles led by Stephen
Keshi defeated Senegal 2-1 in the opening game of the 1992 Africa Cup of
Nations which was ironically hosted by Senegal.
He opened scoring for Nigeria in the game that the Eagles needed a
Stephen Keshi late goal to win the game after Jules Bocande had
equalised for the home side.
The former FC Nantes coach will once again attempt to defeat the
Teranga Lions in their backyard-but this time as a coach looking to head
back to the Olympics after leading Nigeria to a second place finish in
2008 at the Beijing Olympics.
