Super Eagles caretaker coach, Augustine Eguavoen says his team has total respect for their next opponents, the Amavubi of Rwanda.

Eguavoen however said the three-time African champions are in Kigali to beat their hosts.

“Whatever formation Rwanda comes up with tomorrow, we are ready, the country is full of expectations . It doesn’t matter, who will play they expect us to win,” the former defender told a press conference monitored by DAILY POST.

“We are here already, we respect Rwanda, but are here to get a good result. They respect us, we do respect them too.

“We will play them with respect. You don’t look down on teams these days because football has improved, when you underrate teams, you might get shocked.

“We will be on our feet, remember any country that is playing against Nigeria will always try to raise their game. We have to be ready as well.”
