Aaron Samuel Confident Of Eagles Victory Against South Africa

Sarpsborg 08 attacker Aaron Samuel is not losing sleep that he did not get the green-light from the Nigeria handlers to join the Super Eagles in South Africa.<br /><br />The youngster only made the standby list, and might have journeyed to South Africa if any of the strikers in the roster - Victor Obinna, Ahmed Musa, Nnamdi Oduamadi and Shola Ameobi - had pulled out of the squad. <br /><br />'' Of course, I would have loved to play this game, but I was not instructed by the coaches to fly to South Africa.<br /><br />'' Making the standby list and getting this recognition from coach Stephen Keshi is massive. This has boosted my confidence.<br /><br />'' I am certain my time will come in future. I just have to keep doing well for my club Sarpsborg 08.<br /><br />'' I will be paying special attention to this game tomorrow. I wish the team luck and I am sure that the Eagles will defeat South Africa in their own backyard,'' says Aaron Samuel to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>.<br /><br />19 - year - old Aaron Samuel, who penned a three - year deal with Sarpsborg 08 last month, netted his debut goal for the Brian Deane led side in the penultimate round of matches in the Norwegian Premier League.<br /><br /><i>Photo Caption: Ex Leeds United striker Brian Deane, Aaron Samuel and Atta Aneke</i><br /><br />
