LATEST UPDATE:
Salami And Emenike To Against South AfricaThree changes have been made by the Super Eagles technical crew ahead of their match against Bafana Bafana in Cape Town
Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi is expected to make three changes to his starting line up when they take on South Africa on Wednesday evening in Cape Town.
Forwards Emmanuel Emenike and Gbolahan Salami will be joined by midfielder Nosa Igiebor as part of changes made from the defeat to Congo in Calabar on Saturday.
This means that Nnamdi Oduamadi, Uche Nwofor and Ramon Azeez will drop to the bench after a lackluster performance that saw the Super Eagles lose 3-2 to the Red Devils, their first home defeat in a qualifier in 33 years.
Salami, who plays for local side Warri Wolves, scored the second goal for Nigeria in Calabar after coming on as a substitute.
Bafana coach Shakes Mashaba has also made two changes to the squad that defeated Sudan 3-0 in Omdurman last Friday.
Keagan Dolly and Tokelo Rantie were dropped for this encounter, with Oupa Manyisa and Sibusiso Vilakazi taking their places respectively.
While a confident Bafana side will hope to get their first win against the Eagles in competitive football, the African champions will hope they don’t falter once more in their attempt to qualify for Morocco 2015.
Starting Sides
South Africa XI: Senzo Meyiwa, Thulani Hlatshwayo, Anele Ngcongca, Erick Mathoho, Thabo Matlaba, Andile Jali, Dean Furman, Oupa Manyisa, Mandla Masango, Sibusiso Vilakazi and Bongani Ndulula.
Nigeria XI: Ejide; Ambrose, Oboabona, Omeruo, Echiejile; Onazi, Mikel, Igiebor; Musa, Emenike, Salami.
