Iwobi starts, as Chukwueze, Aribo dropped from Super Eagles starting XI
Head coach of the senior national team of Nigeria Jose Peseiro has made known his starting lineup for the senior national team of Nigeria against Equatorial Guinea in the Africa Cup of Nations.
Contrary to what we earlier reported Alex Iwobi starts in a midfield three alongside the duo of Frank Onyeka and Alhassan Yusuf, whom we erroneously said was picked ahead of Iwobi.
In goal , Stanley Nwabali was picked ahead of regular first choice goalkeeper Francis Uzoho. Other notable absentees in the starting lineup include Calvin Bassey, Samuel Chukwueze and Joe Aribo.
