GBENGA AROKOYO: Well Deserved Victory For Eagles

Mj&auml;llby central defender Gbenga Arokoyo has shared his thoughts and impressions on the Super Eagles 6 - 1 trashing of Liberia on Saturday evening at the UJ Esuene Stadium in Calabar.<br /><br />\'\'It is a well deserved victory for the Eagles. But I expect them to do better in South Africa than what they played today, the team is gradually taking shape,\'\' says Arokoyo to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>.<br /><br />In four Nations Cup qualifying ties, the Eagles conceded three goals against Liberia and Rwanda. However, Arokoyo, a product of Kwara Football Academy has high ratings for Nigeria\'s defense.<br /><br />He said: \'\'The defenders were excellent throughout the qualifiers and that is what everybody wants. I think it is a good idea for coach Stephen Keshi to mix foreign based and local defenders in the team, depending on his match tactics. <br /><br />\'\'Though Yobo did not play today, he has impressed me with his leadership qualities, and I\'d pick him as Nigeria\'s best defender now.\'\'<br /><br />So far, he has made 6 appearances for Mjallby in the Swedish championship.<br />
