You are the adaptable type who will see changes as sources of good opportunities. LEADERSHIP quality is one of your greatest gifts from God. placement of your natal sun (basic-selfhood) and moon (your emotional being) in Virgo and Pisces respectively mean that characteristics of both Virgo and Pisces are highly pronounced in your inner-self.

Major highlight of the squad was including USL Championship joint top scorer Augustus Williams who will be eyeing his international debut, besides Anderlecht striker Mustapha Bundu. CAF opens door for fans C onfederation of African Football has opened the door to fans participation in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers. This was one of the changes made in face of the Covid-19 restrictions. Although Caf had ruled that no fans will be allowed into stadia for November games, nevertheless, there is a tweak should any host association’s government insists on having fans around. “All the matches must be played without spectators, however, should a host association’s government approve that matches can be played with spectators, the host federation must obtain prior approval from Caf,” it added. “The number of spectators shall not exceed 50% of the stadium capacity. These measures are effective and are valid only during the current context of global health crisis due to the Covid-19.” Other changes include the Afcon 2022 qualification games, Caf Champions League and Caf Confederation Cup will have number of players increased by 10 players as that will allow participating teams to replace any player who contracts the virus. Edo State test-runs VAR for Eagles, Leone Stars tie head of tomorrow's 2021 African ACup of Nations qualifier between the Super Eagles and Leone Stars at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin City, the Edo State government, yesterday, tested the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology, which would be used for the first time in a Nigerian stadium. The first of its kind in the country, the VAR technology at the Ogbemudia Stadium, which is the only one in Nigeria, is expected to limit and probably eliminate wrong calls by the match officials, as well as check players' excesses during the match between Nigeria and Sierra Leone. VAR is in use in Europe and America but has not yet found root in Africa. Its introduction elevates the Ogbemudia Stadium to another level of premium. During yesterday's test-run of the novel VAR technology in Nigeria, those inside the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, could not hide their palpable excitement when the engineers pressed the right buttons as the screen displayed, showing the replay version of an action on the pitch. •John Kiester Former AC Millan midfielder Rodney Strasser who now plays for Turun Palloseura, Randers forward Alhaji Kamara and 32-year-old Mohamed “Medo” Kamara return to the squad.

Sierra Leone has won two, lost nine and drew three of their games with the Super Eagles of Nigeria. We’ll beat Sierra Leone home and away to qualify – Rohr They have become used to this trend of things under Franco-German trainer, Gernot Rohr in his four years and four months so far: earning tickets to major tournaments with matches to spare. And that is what the Super Eagles aim to continue in this international fixtures-corridor when they confront the Leone Stars of Sierra Leone in a quickfire double Africa Cup of Nations qualifying series in Benin City and Freetown. By lunch time yesterday, all 23 invited players had arrived at the Eagles’ Eterno Hotel and Suites abode in Benin City, just before Sierra Leone’s 43-man contingent flew into town. The Leone Stars’ delegation had flown into Lagos aboard an ASKY airline flight from Freetown, before being lifted by a chartered flight to the Edo State capital. Technical Adviser Gernot Rohr, Man Utd in talks over Ronaldo return anchester United Mhave reportedly contacted Cristiano Ronaldo with the view to resigning the Portugal international during next summer’s transfer window. The 35-year-old’s existing deal with Juventus is due to run until June 2022, but the Italian champions are allegedly keen to offload the attacker next summer to reduce the wage bill. Paris Saint-Germain have been strongly linked with the forward, but according to FOX Sports journalist Christian Martin, United are in talks with the Portuguese over a return, and Juve would be prepared to negotiate with the 20-time English champions. “Our sources in Manchester and Porto confirm that Manchester United tempted Cristiano Ronaldo with a return to the club for next season. The Portuguese star is considering it. Juventus will negotiate a deal if Ronaldo asks for it,” Martin posted on Twitter. Ronaldo turned out for United between 2003 and 2009, scoring 118 goals in 292 appearances, winning three Premier League titles, one FA Cup and one Champions League in the process. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner has scored 71 times in 94 appearances for Juve since arriving from Real Madrid, including six goals in five outings in all competitions this term. •Eagles in training who superintended Nigeria’s qualification for the 2018 FIFA World Cup finals with a match to spare from a hard-as-nails pool that included Cameroon, Algeria and Zambia, and also led the Eagles to earn a 2019 AFCON ticket ahead of the final day of the qualifiers, said on Wednesday that he is expecting his wards to conform to style and taste. “We do not in any way underrate the Sierra Leoneans that we play over two legs within these four days, but we have our focus and •Ron Eagles face Covid-19 tests ahead of Sierra Leone clash Nigeria senior national team players will be tested for Covid-19 before taking on Sierra Leone in Friday’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifier. The three-time African champions face the Leone Stars, who are in dire need of a win in order to revive their Cameroon 2022 ambitions. Before locking horns with the West Africans, however, players and coaches of the Super Eagles will be subjected to the assessment on Wednesday afternoon. Few hours after that, Gernot Rohr’s side will have their second training session by 17:00 (West African Time) at newly renovated Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium. Having faced reigning African champions Algeria and Tunisia in friendly games, Rohr’s men are in good shape to face the Leone Stars. Their last appearance at Afcon was in Egypt 2019 where they finished third having recorded a 1-0 win over the Carthage Eagles in the bronze medal match. John Keister’s men sit at the base of Group L with one point following a stuttering start to the qualifying campaign, having recorded a draw against Lesotho and defeat to Benin Republic. Sierra Leone are hoping to make their third appearance in the biennial African football showpiece. They last featured at the 1996 edition staged in South Africa. There, they crashed out of the group stage after one win and two defeats. The reverse fixture takes place at the National Stadium Freetown on Tuesday, November 17 with victory for Nigeria guaranteeing them a place in the 2022 Afcon.

We want to win both games so we can have the ticket and be able to be little more relaxed for the final games. You know that next year, we also have the World Cup qualifiers to focus on. It is better to get the AFCON job behind us now. “I am excited by the spirit of the players and their sense of dedication and commitment. We have not played a competitive match in a year, but they look very ready and good to go. Our mission is the six points in these two matches.” With the maximum six points from their first two matches of the campaign, three ahead of secondplaced Benin Republic who square up to Lesotho, the Eagles will be sure of a spot in the Draw for the finals in Cameroon if they earn all the points at stake against t is going to be a winner takes all game in the match between MFM of Lagos and Abia Warriors at the ongoing Governor Wike Pre- Season Championships in Port Harcourt.

Dr OLadip further appealed to football fans in the country not to be angry that they will not have the opportunity of being in the stadium to watch the match live. Early this week, the Confederation of African football (CAF), had ruled that in keeping with the COVID~19 guidelines fans, supporters club and sports writers will not be allowed into the stadium and Ladipo believes the decision was taken in the best interest of the fans so as not to have another spike in the pandemic especially now that the curve have been flattened in the country. the Leone Stars. A year ago, at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo, the Eagles survived a scare as the Squirrels from Benin Republic scored to take the lead inside five minutes of kick off. Victor Osimhen levelled from the spot just before half time and winger Samuel Kalu slotted in the winner off a solo effort in the second period. Days later, the Eagles again fell behind against Lesotho’s Crocodiles in Maseru, before goals by Alex Iwobi and Samuel Chukwueze, and a brace by Osimhen put daylight between the Eagles and their hosts. Captain Ahmed Musa and his deputy, William Ekong sang similar tunes as Coach Rohr in previewing the two encounters with the Leone Stars, saying the players are hungry for victory in both games as they want to assure an early spot in Cameroon. United in second position but with a better goal difference and a game at hand. Abia Warriors however will need to get the total three points to be able to topple Bayelsa United in the group as anything less than a win will eliminate them from the competition. On Wednesday, Bayelsa United walkover Ndala FC as the non-league side failed to turn up for the early morning game. MFM will need to work on their discipline as they have gotten a red card in each of their three games played so far in the competition. Also on Wednesday, amateur side, Ottasolo FC of Lagos defeated Cynosure FC 1-0 to secured their first win of the tournament. Apart from MFM game against Warriors on Thursday, Cynosure FC will be looking forward to get something out of their game against host team, Rivers United while the final game of the day will see Akwa United taking on Ottasolo FC.
