ANS Runs The Rule Over Nigeria Target, Liverpool Winger Jordon Ibe
As the pre-season is still ongoing, clubs are engaging each other in friendly games in in preparation for the new season. <br /><br />A host of clubs were in action but we take a look at the game between Brisbane Roar FC of Australia and Liverpool FC of England where Jordan Ibe was a handful for his opponents.<br /><br />Jordon Ibe did not start the game but came off the bench in the second half. The second half duration was enough for the Anglo-Nigerian Winger to make his mark in the game. <br /><br />His introduction into the game gave Liverpool a cutting edge over their Australian opponents.<br /><br />His presence was felt from the left flank where his pace down the left caused a lot of worry for the opposing defence. <br /><br />On receiving the ball on the flank he beat his marker with pace and just outside the box cut inside to unleash a blazing strike just inches away from the top corner. What a goal, it would have been. <br /><br />The player was hitting his hand in disarray knowing how close he was to a memorable goal. <br /><br />He was willing to take defenders on whenever he received the ball on the wing and was involved in James Milner’s winning goal to make it 2 – 1 in favour of Liverpool.<br /><br />His composure on the ball blights his young age, always calling for the ball because of his self-belief. <br /><br />His awareness was spot on. He seems to see from back and know what to do before he<br />receives the ball. <br /><br />His decision making is good compared to his age. His pace and dribbling runs made him a cause for concern for the opponents coupled with his occasionally tracking back to help out in defensive duties. <br /><br />Jordon Ibe is a top class player in the making for sure.<b><br /><br />Obiweluozo Martins</b><br /><br />Photo Credit : liverpoolfc.com<br />
