Austin Oboroakpo Not Bothered About Ahmed Akaichi Threat

Abia Warriors skipper Austin Oboroakpo has been previewing the upcoming meeting between the Super Eagles and Tunisia at the African Nations Championship.<br /><br />The central defender is poised to make his maiden appearance in the competition having missed Monday evening&rsquo;s clash with Niger Republic due to accumulation of cards in the qualifiers.<br /><br />&ldquo;The mood right now in camp ahead of the game is high. The performance against Niger was good and the whole team really impressed me, &rdquo; Oboroakpo said to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>.<br /><br />&ldquo;I can&rsquo;t predict the scoreline, I am just asking God for victory.&rdquo;<br /><br />Should Oboroakpo step out onto the Stade R&eacute;gional Nyamirambo pitch on Friday afternoon, one of the assignments he must do without blemish is to stop the prolific Etoile du Sahel striker <span style="white-space:normal;">Ahmed Aka&iuml;chi from extending his scoring run in Rwanda. </span><br /><br />&ldquo;It&rsquo;s good for him he has scored two goals but we don&rsquo;t have plans to man - mark him. <br /><br />&ldquo;I think they should be the ones to worry about us. We are not bothered about Akaichi because their team is not a one - man team, &rdquo; the Super Eagles number 5 concluded.<br /><br />The Super Eagles will qualify for the quarterfinals of the African Nations Championship with one game to spare if they secure maximum points from the game against the North Africans.<br /><br />Photo Credit : thenff.com<br />
