Rivers United fans were stunned on Sunday when Eguma released his team sheet for the game against Rangers with Ihunda saddled with the responsibility of playing as the main striker.<br /><br />It looked a weird decision as the player had made the right back position his own all season.<br /><br />In the ninth minute of the game against Rangers, Ihunda came face to face with the Rangers goalkeeper, Emmanuel Daniel and the stadium held its collective breath.<br /><br />Ihunda opted to chip the goalkeeper but produced a feeble effort which went wide.<br /><br />The groans of the fans could have easily seen the auxiliary forward retract into his shell but he recovered from that bad miss to produce a masterclass for the rest of the game.<br /><br />He won a penalty (which led to his side&rsquo;s first goal) five minutes later and worried the Okey Odita-led defence to no end as United closed out an emphatic victory.<br /><br />&ldquo;I am not worried about playing as a striker. Our captain (Festus Austin) told me a few days before we faced Rangers that I would be playing as a striker.<br /><br />&ldquo;I was calm and prepared for the game. I knew I could do it.<br /><br />&ldquo;When I was younger, I played in all positions so I was not really worried about playing as a striker against Rangers,&rdquo; he said.<br /><br />Eguma has also hinted that Ihunda could again lead the line against Wolves on Sunday following his sparkling displays against Rangers.<br /><br />Sammy Wejinya, MO Rivers United<br />
